The 3rd annual Winter Walk will be held on Sunday, February 10th, 2019.  This 2 mile walk through the streets of Boston during the coldest month of the year will begin and end on Copley Plaza.

February Food Pantry Item:
SNACKS
BE A PART OF ST ANDREW'S
During the Epiphany season, it is a tradition to have our homes blessed for the coming year and pray that they may be places of peace, joy, and rest. A home blessing is a great time to invite friends and family - especially those who may be looking for a church home. If you'd like your home blessed, please contact the office to schedule a time with Fr. Kevin.
The Christmas Fair Committee is looking for the following items for next year’s Christmas Fair:
  • Holiday Items
  • Empty gift baskets
  • Toys that your children have outgrown
There is a box in the narthex to collect items OR place the items on the stage marked as a fair donation.
Ask your family and friends to consider donating items they no longer want to the Christmas Fair.
Janet Keane is looking for some assistance in putting together coffee hour each Sunday. Duties include checking supplies (half & half, juice, etc), setting up the coffee prior to service, setting out snacks and beverages, and cleaning up after. 

This is a great activity to do as a family or with friends . There is a new signup sheet in the kitchen, so pick an upcoming date that works for you. If you are new to the Coffee Hour scene, see Janet Keane for more details.
