Social Media Sunday (October 25, 2015) is a day for people to share what is happening in their churches on social media: Facebook, Twitter, Instgram, etc. etc. etc.
We hope that on this day a lot of St. Andrew's people will share a lot of the great things that happen at our church. But, just in case you're not sure what to share, how about this second story in our "Stories of Hope Clothing series:
There are too many stories of bad news. There are too many stories about people putting people down, hating them or mistreating them. We need to hear this kind of story.
There are too many stories of hopelessness. We need to hear stories of hope. We need to hear about what God is doing.
So will you help us spread this story and the ones that will follow it?

On Sunday, October 4th we celebrated Worldwide Communion Day
and Harvest Sunday.
Harvest Sunday was a celebration for all of the vegetables that were lovingly grown throughout the summer, mostly by our Sunday School children. After worship we got to view all of the vegetables while enjoying a delicious bowl of home made soup. The Grand Gardeners were drawn from a basket of names this year, because the offerings were all so wonderful. The Grand Gardeners were: Sarah & Adria; with 3rd prize going to Nigel & Alice!
All vegetables and donations were given to
Thursday Night Supper & Social (which will begin again on October 15th.
