The goal for the Outreach Committee is to strive to fulfill the St. Andrew’s vision statement. Our vision commits us to reach out with compassion to those in need, to be inviting to others, to break down barriers and to reach across lines of status and culture, increasing our visibility in the community.

Romans 15:7 directs us to warmly welcome each other into the church, just as Christ has welcomed us; then God will be glorified.

Some activities of our committee include:

  • Bringing a loaf of bread and some information about St. Andrew's to each first-time visitor to St. Andrew's.
  • Facilitating the orientation and welcoming of new members into the congregation.
  • Coordinating the delivery of a meal to new mothers and those with health problems.
  • Organizing a neighborhood picnic in the late summer.
  • Encouraging the congregation to reach out and invite friends, family, and coworkers to worship with us.


We look for ways to be beacons of God's love in our community.
