Summer Evening Worship at Saint Andrew's: On Sundays August 2, and September 6, the worship service will be at 5:00pm, instead of at 10:00am.We are offering this during a season when many are away on Sunday mornings and might welcome an evening opportunity for worship. Because of the long summer daylight hours in this part of the world, this will still be a safe driving time to and from church for you. The order of worship will remain the same, with hymns, liturgy, sermon, and Holy Communion. All are welcome to join us!!
