Our Sanctuary Then & Now

The church is getting a much needed refresh this week! The windows on the front of the Sanctuary and on the side near the altar are getting patched, weatherproofed and repainted to ensure their longevity. Thank you CJ & crew!

A huge thank you also to David Carlson and John Wagner for coordinating and carrying out the pantry shelving project!

Supporting Hunger Suppers

Our weekly meal program is consistently serving over 100 people each week! The operational budget for the Hunger Supper ministry is in need of donations to support this increase of nearly double the numbers of guests we were used to seeing. We are also in need of volunteers to step up as team leads, who plan the meal, shop for the ingredients, and prepare it. Food Handler's certificates are required, and our Volunteer Coordinator, Auburn, is able to provide this training. If you would like to serve as a regular or substitute team lead, please contact Auburn at volunteer@standrewspb.org. If you would like to donate to our Hunger Supper ministry fund, please use the button below and select "Hunger Supper Support" from the drop down menu. Thank you!

Rebel Women Bible Study

ON VACATION FOR SUMMER

The Bible is full of women who bucked the status quo. Ruth, Naomi, Deborah, Jael - meet the real women of the Bible. No experience reading the Bible? No problem! We approach these stories with curiosity and encourage doubt, questioning, and wrestling with the text.

Discover that "biblical womanhood" is all about risk, strength, and justice for the marginalized.

Come connect with other women asking big questions and seeking support on their spiritual journey.

Please join us when the group resumes meeting in September!

Support the Saturday Meal Service

Every Saturday morning, Jodie and her team of volunteers set up their folding tables in front of St. Andrew's and feed anyone who is hungry. This past Saturday, they fed 80 people a hearty breakfast.

Jodie and her team from small potatoes foundation have been serving meals on Saturdays at St. Andrew's since June 2024. Their organization is dedicated to offering nourishing and wholesome meals to those facing hardships.

Check out this note from Jodie:

"We deeply appreciate your generosity in allowing us to use your church lawn as a space to feed our guests. Your support truly helps us in our mission to serve those in need. We are dedicated to making a significant impact on the lives of our neighbors facing adversity and food insecurity. We believe a meal made with love is a tangible way to show compassion and understanding. If you’re able, please consider making a donation to help us continue feeding our neighbors in

need. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to making a lasting impact.

From our bustling kitchen, Chef Jodie"
