Mission Conference in March.
This year’s annual Mission Conference on Saturday, March 7 will feature keynote speaker Baptist minister Rev. Michael (“Pastor Mike”) Walrond, Senior Pastor of First Corinthian Baptist Church (FCBC) in Harlem, New York. Considered a visionary, a cultural architect and “game-changer” by his peers, Pastor Mike will share his story and discuss how mission-shaped work can transform local communities. In his fifteen years as its leader FCBC has grown from 300 to more than 10,000 members. The day-long conference will take place at St. Paul’s Church in Riverside. Training (“equipping”) sessions on a host of mission topics will be offered. You can register on Eventbrite:
Joining Jesus –
After much discernment, the St. Andrew’s vestry, with input from members of the Endowment, Visioning and Stewardship Committees, has decided the time is right for St. Andrew’s to participate in the Episcopal Church in Connecticut’s
Joining Jesus
initiative designed to help churches develop financial resources. We are one of fourteen churches participating. Following the recent work done by the Visioning committee, this campaign will allow us to continue to embrace God’s mission here at St. Andrew’s more fully, with the help of professional counsel provided by the Episcopal Church in Connecticut. This is an effort in which everyone will be invited to participate in a way that makes sense to them.
Save the date – Regional Confirmations at St. Andrew’s on Saturday, May 2, 10:00 am

STOP and SHOP CARDS.
The purchase of Stop & Shop cards provides an additional opportunity, over and above our pledging, to help support St. Andrew's while you buy your groceries. 5% of all card purchases go directly to St. Andrew's when paid for with cash or a personal check. Buy Stop & Shop cards after each service or during the week in the church office. We do accept Visa, Master Card and Discover but then we only net about 2 1/2% for St. Andrew's.
