Advent and Christmas at Saint Andrew's
Advent Family Festival
Our Advent Family Festival is a church-wide gathering where we will celebrate the approaching Advent season with dinner, a mission for our home friends and college students, come Christmas caroling, and decorating our church home.
Sundays in Advent
Each Sunday during Advent is a special time at Saint Andrew's. Although every day at Saint Andrew's is a great day, this is especially true during the Advent season. Come join us for worship service at 8 AM or 10:15 AM (or both!).
Christmas Eve Worship Services
At 5:00 PM Christmas Eve, we host our annual Family Service with the Nativity Pageant. Join us as Pastor Dave tells the story of Christmas with help from all of you. Kids of all ages get to participate in the service.
Then, at 8:00 PM, we have our Christmas Eucharist and Candlelight Service.

Advent Bible Study with Pastor Dave
Each year during Advent, our Pastor - Reverend Dr. David E. Thayer - hosts a special Bible study. All our welcome - check the calendar for the dates and times.
Breakfast and Games with Santa
A special event for families with younger ones, this event will feature a delicious breakfast and a visit from a special guest.
United Methodist Women Cookie Exchange
This has been a longstanding favorite of our United Methodist Women. The UMW is always a great opportunity for women of all ages to come together in service, but this is a special opportunity for the women to gather together for fellowship. Those who wish to participate bake cookies and bring them to the event; everyone who bakes cookies gets to take the same number home. A great opportunity to taste the baking prowess of our congregation! The event also includes a potluck luncheon.
And More...
And there is always more. Check our calendar for a listing of all of our special activities during the Advent season.
