    Embodying God's Love for All

    No exceptions

  • Children and adults reaching towards a chalice or cup in the center during a religious or ceremonial activity.

    Nurturing Diverse Community

    We recognize that it takes the full diversity of humanity to reflect the divine image of God and that community is never an endpoint, but always in process.

The scene shows individuals, including children and adults, with some people being prayed over by clergy dressed in white robes. One person is dressed in a cow-patterned outfit and is wearing a headpiece. The church has stained glass windows and religious icons, with candles on the table in the foreground.

    Deepening Spirituality

    Our spirituality is an intentional connection to God, as known in Jesus Christ, that provides stability, strength, and the experience of identity and belonging as beloved children of God.

  • A large indoor gathering of people, including children and adults, in a room with wooden floors and large windows. Some people are seated at tables, eating, while others are standing and mingling. There is colorful artwork on a wall above a fireplace.

    Expanding Hospitality

    Expansive hospitality is a condition of the heart that continuously opens us to care deeply for each other and to see new possibilities and ways of thinking and living.

  • A diverse group of people in a pride parade, holding colorful signs and rainbow flags. The signs have messages advocating love and acceptance, with some reading 'See your true colors and that's why I <heart> U', 'What would Dolly do?', and 'More love'. The participants are smiling and dressed in rainbow-themed attire, walking on a bridge in a sunny, tree-lined area.

    Enacting Justice

    In our baptismal covenant, we vow to “strive for justice and peace among all people” and to respect “the dignity of every human being.”

St. Andrew’s nurtures diverse community across generations that seeks to embody God’s love for all, without exception, by deepening spirituality, expanding hospitality, and enacting justice.

Lenten Studies

You’re invited to live the fast that God has chosen two ways this Lent:

Through personal engagement with the Bible, and through communal engagement with the process of truth-telling and search for repair.

Holy Listening: Truth-Telling and the Work of Repair with Indigenous Communities

Mondays Feb 23- March 30 | 7pm on Zoom 

Holy Listening  is a communal learning Lenten series that invites the church into learning, truth-telling, and faithful listening as a practice of repentance and renewal.

We’ll be exploring the realities of indigenous communities in the US as one way of learning and listening together to systemic, historic wrongs and practicing how we might think and go about the work of repair (asking together the question "so what do we DO?" about remaking systems that continue cycles of injustice). 

Sessions are led by author and international indigenous rights leader Sarah Augustine - learn more about her and the series at:

The Social Justice Bible Challenge

Self-Paced Devotional Study

Bridging the gap between knowing the Bible and living it, The Social Justice Bible Challenge is a 40-day devotional study for those seeking to deeply engage with scripture. The book includes a scripture passage for each day, a brief written reflection on the scripture, and questions to spur your own reflection throughout the day. Even if you only have 15 minutes a day, you can read a selection of scripture and consider its meaning for you.

Purchase the book to read at your own pace,
and join us for brunch after church on Sunday, March 8 at 10:15 to share reflections with others doing the Challenge. You can also
contact the office to join a group chat with others doing the Challenge.
