Youth Sunday left St. Andrew's parishioners awed

On April 24, we had a remarkable Sunday as we saw our youth participate in all facets of the 10:30 a.m. service.  Youth Sunday gives our youth the opportunity to experience a variety of roles in Sunday worship and encourages them to consider these ministries now and in the future. It also inspires the congregation as they witness our exceptional youth leading and expresses their love of and support for them.



We GIVE THANKS for:

  • 50 nonperishable items, collected in thanksgiving of our youth, which will support food pantries at THRIVE and St. Paul’s
  • 30 acolytes who were recognized for their 139 years of faithful service
  • 21 youth who participated as greeters, ushers, acolytes, readers, leaders, and homilist
  • 15 different roles that were filled by our youth at the service
  • 3 new altar hangings that were created by our youth and donated to be used at future services
  • 1 inspirational message from senior, Maggie Mahloy, which was joyfully received by all
  • 1 new addition to Youth Sunday – the youth wrote their own community Lord’s Prayer

For this and so much more, we REJOICE for a perfect Youth Sunday that left our parishioners awed!
