Sunday Worship Service

Welcome to St. Andrew’s! We’d love for you to join us this Sunday. While our services are rooted in tradition, there is also heartfelt modern music and the occasional joyful "Amen!" Together, we dive deep into Holy Scripture for guidance and lift our personal prayers before God. Come as you are—no need to dress up. Sit wherever you feel comfortable, and if you’d like, stay after the service for coffee and conversation. We’d love to get to know you!

In addition to attending in person, you can stream the service live HERE on Facebook or HERE on our website. 

Welcome to today’s worship leaders, Marion D and Matt. Kathy is our elder, and our reader is Floris

Order of Service

Prelude

Welcome

Call to Worship (Psalm 16)

Come, bless the Lord,
in whom we find our refuge and safety.
You are our God;
all the good things come from You alone.
Come, bless the Lord,
who gives us a rich inheritance,
and surrounds us with abundance.
You are our God;
our lives are in your hands.
Come, bless the Lord,
whose presence strengthens and sustains us
and guides us to eternal life.
You are our God;
we will not be shaken.
Let’s worship God together!
