Adult Ministry and Education

Our regular Christian Formation programs vary from studies of books like My Grandmother’s Hands to presentations on low-income housing needs in the community. Classes occur after church at various times throughout the year; sometimes for one Sunday and sometimes for a series. We’d love to have you come join the conversation!

Knitters with a lifetime of experience or no experience at all can join together to make prayer shawls, which are prayed over and then gifted to those in the church and the community who are in need of special comfort and support. We also do an annual drive of Scarves for Warmth to help the unhoused and less fortunate stay bundled up in the winter. For more information, contact Lynda Sanecki.

Hearing the Gospel meets every week for about an hour to read the appointed Gospel for the coming Sunday, using a lectio divina practice. We discuss how the reading was interpreted in Jesus’ time and what it means to us today. No preparation is necessary, and all are welcome! Questions may be sent to Bill Hill. 

Spiritual Retreats have been held for many years at St. Andrew’s, both in person and, in pandemic times, online. Groups gather at a nearby retreat center or other location to share stories, hear the Word, worship together, and engage in meaningful fellowship and faith exploration. In the past, we’ve had men’s and women’s retreats, but we’re looking forward to providing more diverse options in the future!
