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, Timma & Curtis. 

Order of Service

Prelude

Welcome

Call to Worship  (Psalm 25)

Show me your ways, Lord,
teach me your paths.
Guide me in your truth 
for you are my Saviour and my God.
Remember your great mercy and love,
for you, Lord, are good.
He instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right.

Session will review the ballots and approach candidates based on their suitability, the number of votes received, and the number of elders needed.
