Home Worship – Sunday August 22, 2021

This Sunday August 22, is an exciting day for us at St. Andrew’s. We will have in-person worship in our sanctuary for the first time since March 2020. For full worship guidelines (such as maximum attendance, requirements for masks and physical distancing) please go to: https://standrews.ws/2021/08/13/in-person-worship/

Sunday is also a fresh start for our online worship service which will continue in a new format on YouTube. The online service will premier Sunday at 10:30am and will be available any time afterward. Last of all, we start a new year in the Big God Project, beginning the story of the Bible again in Genesis. Our theme for the day is “The Lord Gives Life.”

    • Summer Mission Focus: This summer the Mission Team is encouraging our St. Andrew’s Church Family to support the Kenora Fellowship Centre. The Centre is a ministry of the Presbyterian Church in Canada (PCC) that supports Indigenous people in the Kenora area, which was home to one of the two Residential Schools operated by the PCC after 1925. Ministries like the Kenora Fellowship Centre are part of our commitment to Reconciliation and repairing the harm done by the Residential Schools.
