Welcome to
St. Andrew Episcopal Church
Come Worship with Us
Our weekly worship is held every Sunday at 11:00 am.
Our Sunday morning service consists of singing hymns, reading scripture, listening to a sermon, saying prayers and sharing the Eucharist, also known as Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper. Our service lasts approximately one hour.Whether you are familiar with the Episcopal Church, or looking for a new place to worship, we would love to have you join us.​​​​​​​​
THE SEASON OF LENT
On Wednesday, February 18, we begin the season of Lent. This season in the church year is a time to look really long and deep at your relationship with God and Jesus. This searching may be accompanied by some sort of Lenten practice. This may include giving up something we love or enjoy, or doing something extra that we don't normally do throughout the year. Whatever the discipline, its intent is to remind us of God and what our relationship with God looks like. We hope you will join us for this most Holy time of the church year which culminates with the Celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus on Easter Sunday.

The Three Themes of Lent: Praying, Fasting, and Giving
Holy Communion
​
It goes by several names: Holy Communion, the Eucharist (which literally means "thanksgiving"), mass. But whatever it’s called, this is the family meal for Christians and a foretaste of the heavenly banquet. As such, all persons who have been baptized, and are therefore part of the extended family that is the Church, are welcome to receive the bread and wine, and be in communion with God and each other.
Holy Baptism
​
In the waters of baptism we are reminded that we belong to God and nothing can separate us from the love of God. We also find ourselves part of an extended family, one with Christians throughout the ages and across the world, what we call the “one, holy, catholic [meaning 'universal'], and apostolic Church.”
Special Services
​
We hold special services throughout the Liturgal year, including, but not limited to, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, the Day of Ascension and the Blessing of the Animals in honor of the Feast of St. Francis. Please go to our calendar/events page for further information.
