Children's Ministry

We love our kids at St. Andrew’s! Every Sunday morning, you’ll find children from kinder through 5th grade in the Youth House for Children’s Sunday School  where they meet for lessons, crafts, and fun. 

Our goal in Children’s Ministry is to ensure that our children go out into the world carrying with them the joy of the Gospel and the assurance that they are dearly loved by God, so that they can share that love with others.

 

 

CHILDREN'S SUNDAY SCHOOL

We meet every Sunday morning during the 10 am service!

We consider our parish to be a big family–and Children’s Ministry is at the top of our list of priorities. On Sundays, kids in K-5th grade meet for lessons, crafts, and fun!

BURYING THE ALLELUIAS

The first Sunday of Lent is they day we, as a parish, stop saying “Alleluia” until Easter morning. Every year, our children decorate a beautiful Alleluia banner, which we then roll up and put away until it is taken out again with great celebration on Easter morning. Stay in the loop: Be sure to subscribe to our Children’s Ministry Newsletter!

SEASONAL FUN

Every season at St. Andrew’s brings lots of great kid-centered activities. In the summer, we host special family-friendly events, along with special Sundays, like Lemonade Stand Sunday and Popsicle Sunday. In the fall and winter, there are cozy family movie nights, our Christmas pageant, an Advent wreath-making event, and more. Come spring, we observe Lent by burying our Alleluias, and then celebrating as we bring them back on Easter Sunday, when we have an Easter egg hunt with crafts and games for all. St. Andrew’s kids can be seen on any given day working in their own special children’s area in the Prayer Garden, bringing their pets to the Blessing of the Animals, helping out in the community, and making wonderful messes at craft time.
