Happy Easter!

This is an exciting time to be a part of our St. Andrew's family! We have lots going on this month in which everyone can take part. Here are some highlights:

First up, registration for our Parish Retreat to Shrine Mont is now open. Our annual retreat will occur from Oct. 25th-27th at our home away from home in the mountains of Orkney Springs, VA. To learn more about this event, join us for our Adult Forum on Sunday, April 21st after the 10:00 a.m. service.

Next, we have a Purse & Jewelry sale, which is a Relay for Life fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, and will be held on Saturday, April 13th. You can donate gently used items to the donation box outside the church office, or contact someone on Team Believe and arrange a pick up.

Finally, FoMA will have its last concert of the season on Sunday, April 21st at 4:00 p.m. Our guest is Monica Berney, an organist who has made a name for herself as one of the finest organists on the scene today and is known for her technical mastery, effortless musicality, and engaging stage presence.

There's even more happening, so be sure to read this month's Net so you don't miss out!
