Building God's Kingdom through Worship, Outreach, and Fellowship

ABOUT US

Building God’s Kingdom through Worship, Outreach, and Fellowship -- We are a spiritual family that seeks to be accepting, welcoming, and caring. We deeply value how liturgy, music, and prayer in worship brings us closer to God, and we are eager to share our love and faith with our community. We welcome you, trusting that if you are seeking Christ you will find him here. Those who worship at St. Andrew’s come from all walks of life. We respect diversity and individuality. We find our unity at the Eucharist table, and ground our faith in scripture, tradition and reason.
