St. Andrew’s Adventurers

Our Parish Life is Filled with Joy 

While We Worship & Enjoy Activities Inside & Outside the Parish

The high bidder - quite delighted

 

St. Andrew's Day
Some of our church services are very special, like the celebration of St. Andrew’s Day.  Although we emphasize Scottish heritage (St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland), we celebrate our families and the varied backgrounds and traditions of all our people.  Many people wear clothing from their country or the country of their ancestors, and we enjoy special traditional foods after the service.

Weddings are an important part of our life together.  We are blessed by the couples who want to make St. Andrew's their church home.

The St. Andrew’s Adventurers are anyone who attends any of our fun events.  Events at the parish include the annual Chili Cook-Off & Auction, Thanksgiving Dinner, game night, Santa Breakfast,  Spaghetti & Raffle, music events, and a Chicken Barbecue on the lawn.

 

All these events are great for inviting friends and for parishioners to get to know each other better.  Please check the What’s Happening Calendar for upcoming events.

Dads & sons enjoy the parish picnic on our front lawn.

 

Children have fun at Halloween and raise money for UNICEF.

Euchre Night is always a big hit.

     

We celebrated Mardi Gras with a Pancake Supper, led by the fellows of the parish.

Most of our church services are followed by a chance to mingle with fellow parishioners.  Some of the people who attend our 8:00 a.m. Sunday liturgy go to breakfast together.  We enjoy Coffee Hour after every 10:00 a.m. Sunday liturgy.

     

   

Lots of helpers make the Spaghetti Supper a big success.

    

 
Santa joins us every year for Breakfast in early December.  He reminds the children that Jesus is the reason for the season, and that the legend of Santa Claus comes from the life of  St. Nicholas.  Children also enjoy making holiday decorations.
In June 2002, we hosted The Toledo Symphony for our sixth annual Neighborhood Concert.  We invited guests from community organizations - people who might not otherwise be able to attend a concert.

Chelsea Tipton II, then with Savannah Symphony Orchestra, was the guest conductor, and a big hit with the musicians and guests.  Chelsea is now the Resident Conductor of The Toledo Symphony!

 

The Welcoming Committee hosts Newcomers Dinners

a few times each year.  Longtime and newer members get better acquainted.

    

Some of our ladies enjoyed a night out at Red Lobster.
