The Blessing of the Animals and Other Things!

Dear St Andrew’s Family of Faith,

Now that summer’s over, it’s a great time to reconnect with everyone here at church! Services are at 8 am (Holy and Quiet), and 10 am (Holy and Musical). And don’t forget Breakfast in Between at 9!

Items to calendar:

Sunday, October 6: Our new Organist and Choirmaster, Rob Lehman, will begin his ministry with us at our 10 am service. Come enjoy his wonderful music, and welcome him into our family!

Sunday, October 13: Back by popular demand, we’ll celebrate the Feast of St Francis by blessing our pets and animals, at our 10 am service. Always fun, and always interesting! Bring your own pets along!

Sunday, October 20: Also back by popular demand, St Andrew’s is now assembling a team of walkers for the annual island CROP WALK to fight hunger, taking place in the afternoon. Our wonderful Parish Life Coordinator, Sara Barrington and her young family will be walking, and would love to have company! Check out the information to consider it and sign up. It’s a great and uplifting thing to do!

While the Walks normally support global and local hunger fighting efforts, a portion of the funds raised this fall will also be designated to long-term disaster recovery; in this case the devastating emergency of Hurricane Helene.

St. Andrew’s CROP Walk team!
