Welcome to St. Andrew United Church of Christ

“Jesus didn’t turn people away, neither do we.” When you’re gutsy enough to make such a claim, it’s not always easy to make good on it. Following Jesus’ lead, St. Andrew UCC keeps its’ doors open to all. By God’s grace—in the past and today—we do what needs to be done to be bold people of God’s welcome.

Jesus lived and breathed gracious hospitality. Even though there were powerful people who opposed Jesus’ extravagant welcome, he still embraced those who were often shunned. In the reign of God that Jesus spoke of, he declared there is room for all—children (Luke 18:15-17) and those who are hungry, thirsty, homeless, ill, poor, grieving, persecuted, and in prison (Matthew 25: 31-46 and Luke 6:20-26). Jesus put faith and hospitality together: “Whoever receives one whom I send receives me” and those who received Jesus, embraced God (John 13:20).

No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome. If you are young or old, you are welcome. If you have brown skin, black skin, white skin, or any color of skin, you are welcome. If you are married or single, you are welcome. If you are gay or straight, you are welcome. If you are transgender, you are welcome.

We will feed you, “body and soul”, every Sunday at 10:30am for worship, followed by a fabulous brunch. We so hope you will join us very soon.
