Task Force Update
A huge thank you and well done to all the St. Andrew’s members who joined us at City Council and filled the council chambers.
100% of council supporting our application was definitely God’s work among us. The heartfelt experiences shared by Judy Hight, Andrew McVicker and family was the highlight of the presentations along with Lisa Reitzel and Christina Hall - they helped council decide it was people over bricks. We are on the 5-yard line with 95-yards to go, but with God’s help and guidance we will succeed.

Updated Digital, Audio, Photography Policy
St. Andrew’s has recently updated our digital, audio, and photography policy for worship services. This update, approved by Session, includes a reminder that worship services may be live streamed, and as such, individuals attending in person may appear on camera. The updated policy has been posted outside the Sanctuary.

Gift Cards
Are you a shopper for groceries, gas or the occasional coffee? Then gift cards are for YOU and not only to gift to others. Gift cards are easy to use at the checkout and you receive the full value of the card. The Women's Association makes on average 4% rebate from the retailer. The W.A. is currently raising money to help fund office renovations for Ann-Marie McDairmid, our Music Director, and also to provide valuable storage for the church archives.

Choir and Handbell Ringers Welcoming New Members
A new year has begun, and if you'd like to try something new in 2025, the St. Andrew's Sanctuary Choir is always welcoming new choristers! If you're looking for something fun to do, singing in a choir is a healthy, social, and rewarding hobby to take up. Choir rehearsals take place Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 9:00 pm in the sanctuary, and the choir meets at 9:00 am Sunday mornings to prepare before services. Contact the office to sign up. We hope to have you come sing with us!

The St. Andrew's Handbell Ringers are also looking for new members. If you've never tried playing the handbells, now is your chance! Rehearsals for the Handbell Ringers are Thursdays from 6:00 to 7:00pm in the choir room. Contact the church office to sign up. We'd love to have you!
