Faith Formation
|
At St. Andrew's we believe that becoming a disciple of Christ and learning the unforced rhythms of grace is a life long journey rather than a destination at which we arrive. As a result we offer a variety of faith formation opportunities for all ages and hold space where we can learn from each other and grow together as God's beloved community.

GROWING TOGETHER: INTERGENERATIONAL FIRST SUNDAYS
Do you remember the days of being assigned to the kid’s table at Thanksgiving? What did it take to graduate to the realm of adults? High school or college graduation? Getting married? Having a child? Sure, for a while the kid’s table can be fun. But there quickly becomes a day when it’s not - it becomes an annoyance, a line of division. So often in the church, we gather around the tables that have been set for us without questioning them. Kids over here, youth there, 20’s and 30’s in the basement, older adults in the side room. This fall we want to take away the tables - at least for the first Sunday of the month.
On the first Sunday of each month, we invite all ages to gather in the parish hall where we will learn, play and grow together. Each month we will explore one aspect of our shared liturgy that occurs in our Eucharist service with the goal of enriching our shared worship. Mark your calendars and plan to attend the first Sundays starting October 3rd at 9:30am. Whether you are 3, 23, or 83, you have something to offer the church, and we look forward to learning with and from you!
