What's New Celebrating our patron, St. Andrew, on Sunday, Nov. 17 The official date in the church calendar for St. Andrew is November 30, but with Bishop Susan's permission, we will be celebrating his festal day a bit early, on Sunday, November 17. At both services we will be using the lectionary readings for St. Andrew's day and reflecting on how St. Andrew can be a guide and inspiration for us. Wear your tartan!

Applications for Lackey Fund grants are now being accepted Thanks to a substantial trust generously left by Carolyn Lackey to benefit the less fortunate, St. Andrew’s has distributed grants to numerous charitable organizations since 2014. More information about the Lackey Fund grants and an application form can be found on our website at www.standrews-episcopal.org/outreach. The application can be completed by someone from the organization, or a parishioner may complete it on behalf of an organization with which they are involved. These past recipients of Lackey Fund grants have been notified that applications are now being accepted: THRIVE Peninsula, HELP, Housing Development Corporation of Hampton Roads, Holy Cross, Grove Outreach, Youth Volunteer Corps of Hampton Roads, Soundscapes, Lackey Free Clinic, Peninsula Pastoral Counseling Center, St. Vincent de Paul, First Spark, and United Way. The deadline for applications is November 30. A committee will review all applications based on the guiding principle that “the money follows our people”; in other words, top priority will be given to organization in which parishioners are actively involved.
