A Message from our Staff Parish Relations Committee:
Greetings St. Andrew's Friends and Family!
A few months ago, I announced the upcoming retirement of our beloved pastor, Pastor Sherri Barnes. With that we embarked on the selection process for a new senior pastor to join our church. I am happy to announce that Pastor Norma Villagrana will be joining us July 1st. She comes to us with more than 20 years of experience. She served as conference leadership - as chair of the WNCC UMC Order of Elders and also on the conference's Board of Ordained Ministry. She has been described as having a deep and contagious spirituality. She is a dedicated worship planner, with experience in facility usage and expanding ministries. She believes in small group connections, prayer meetings, and community. She is part of a clergy couple, as her husband Hugo is also a pastor. We look forward to her joining us in July. We will provide opportunities for small group connections with Pastor Norma. Thank you to all who have prayerfully lifted up St. Andrew's during this time. We are very excited for our new chapter and where God is leading St. Andrews. -- Courtney Picha, Chair of St. Andrew's Staff Parish Relations Committee.
Who Are We:
The direction we believe God has given us 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 represent 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 his work.
