Welcome to
St. Andrew Episcopal Church
All are Welcome, and we mean All!
Our congregation is a diverse group:
-
Some are old and some are young.
-
Some are lifelong Episcopalians and some are new to the Episcopal Church.
-
Some have worshiped here their entire life and some not so long.
-
Some are here year round and some are “snow birds.”
But there is one thing we have in common – We love the Lord and love worshiping God and sharing the Eucharist together as the body of Christ.
If you are feeling lonesome, let us walk with you.
If you are feeling lost, let us help you find your way.
If you are feeling blessed, let us share your blessings with you.
Welcome to the Episcopal Church where Christ is King and the Gospel is lived.
Faithfully,
The Rev. Pamela Lenartowicz, Rector

On Friday, May 15 from 12:00 - 2:00, St. Andrew will be hosting a Hygiene Closet. This event is open to the public. Many cleaning products will be available FREE OF CHARGE TO ANYONE, no questions asked. The types of items include, but are not limited to: personal hygiene products, household cleaning products, diapers for young and old.
Pentecost is considered the birthday of the church. It occurs 50 days after Easter and 10 days after the Assencion of Jesus into heaven. This is the day the Holy Spirit arrived to the apostles and they spread the Good News to the people in Jerusalem.
We celebrate Pentecost by hanging baloons and wearing red which is the color of the Holy Spirit.
We would love to have you join us on May 24th for this joyous celebration.
