Note About Who We Are:
 The direction we believe God has given us is to grow into being a multi-cultural congregation. A one-mile radius around our building includes 4% Asian, 19% African-American, 42% White, and 32% Hispanic or Latino neighbors. We best re-present God's Kingdom and God's love when we are together.  This is substantive work. We're getting better at approximating God's goal, but we're not there yet. We need to learn from people like you. We believe in the vision that Jesus gave us when he fed the 5,000, a vision in which we'll all be fed and healed at Jesus' feet together. We hope that we can partner with you in this work.

Helping the Community
Picture
Butterflies!!!
Order your Painted Lady Caterpillars by March 20th so your
child can watch his or her own caterpillar change into a beautiful butterfly! Our Children's Ministry will release our butterflies on Easter Sunday! The Painted Lady Caterpillars come with a life-long supply of nutrient. They are self-sufficient until the chrysalis state -- then you simply transfer them to the Butterfly box. Whey they become butterflies, they should be released in a few days. (Life expectancy from that point is two to three weeks.) You will receive a kit with complete instructions. It's easy!
To download the 2019 Painted Lady Caterpillar order form, visit here. Return the completed order form with payment to the Butterfly Table or to the black staff mailbox on the Church Office Door (Room #15) by March 20th. Please make checks payable to St. Andrew's UMC and earmark "Butterflies." This a great gift to give to a special friend!
