Fellowship

At St. Andrew’s, we like to have fun. Gathering together is part of our mission to each other. Here are some of the activities we enjoy:

Coffee Time: Each week between worship and the Education hour, we gather for treats and coffee to catch up with our church family, meet new friends and hear about what is going on in our community of faith.

Forks & Friends: Our informal dining club. Monthly, we venture out to a local eating establishment, enjoy a meal and to get to know each other better.

SASSA – Saints and Sinners of St. Andrew’s: SASSA serves our mature members by providing an opportunity to gather for an educational program and lunch in our Friendship Hall each month.

Annual Church Retreat: Once a year we head to a retreat center to renew and restore our faith. All members and friends as well as their children are invited to attend. We use this time away to focus on relationship with God, Jesus and the Spirit and to explore what we can do to grow in our faith in the coming year.

Spring Pot Luck: This “old fashioned” tradition is one of our favorites! Everyone pitches in with food. We eat, we laugh, we enjoy the company of others.

Strawberry Festival: In June, the strawberries are ripe and we celebrate with lots of ice cream, entertainment and games. The community is invited to join us for the first taste of summer.

Summer Picnic: In July, we worship outside in one of the best picnic areas in northeast Ohio. After worship, we grill a few hot dogs and hamburgers, play games, hike around the woods and sometimes put our toes into the local river.

Welcome Back Sunday: Just after Labor Day we gather back for the school year and renew our routines. The beginning of Christian education classes is celebrated with a weenie roast.
