Mission Sunday – June 4, 2023
The first Sunday in June will be a special mission service. Our guest speaker will be Kaylee Norwood, the Executive Director of Ancaster Community Services (ACS). St. Andrew’s has been a long-time supporter of ACS, and Kaylee will be sharing some updates on their work in the local community offering programs for seniors, youth, and people in need of extra support.
June 11 is Heritage Sunday:
Worship will reflect on the story of God’s work through the congregation St. Andrew’s and include a time of remembrance in the church cemetery for all those who have gone before us in faith.
