Welcome to St. Andrew!

It is such an honor for us that you have taken time to explore St. Andrew United Methodist Church!

St. Andrew is a welcoming community, equipping generations to share God's love.

We believe what you will discover as you explore these pages is a faith community that loves Jesus, is excited about connecting with other people, and is passionately committed to changing our world.

This is a faith community with much activity. We are devoted to worship with multiple services both in-person and online. We are intentional in nurturing our love for Jesus through a variety of spiritual formation opportunities and community outreach. We are dedicated to preparing all generations for community influence.

Within this site we have provided some of the highlights of this growing and vibrant faith community. Undoubtedly, you may have questions that have not been addressed within these pages. Please, feel free to reach out to us with a phone call, an email, fill out the online Connection Card, or simply stop by…we would love to visit with you!

Blessings For your Journey!

We sure hope so! We love it when visitors worship with us. You can expect to be welcomed by our greeters, ushers, and other folks in the Commons, but we may not recognize you as a first time visitor. A volunteer at our Welcome Desk would be happy to help orient you. Feel free to say, “This is my first time,” and we will make sure to guide you in! Also, know that we won’t single you out publicly or ask you to say anything.

If you need help getting into the church, please drive up to the front entrance and one of our greeters will be available to help you. Our building was designed for accessibility and we have a handicapped entrance at both the main entrance and the back entrance to the church. Our Great Room will easily accommodate wheelchairs, walkers, and other assistive devices. Audio-assistance devices are also available at the Welcome Center if you, or someone in your family, has a hearing impairment. Although our system is considered state-of-the-art, we do know that the sound is stronger in the front sections of the Great Room.

Kids of all ages are always welcome to stay in the Great Room with their families. Art tables are available in the Great Room where kids can create during worship. Nursery care is available for infants through age three all morning. Growth Groups are available for preschool through high school at 9:30 am during our Sunday Connection time between services. Those in preschool through fifth grade will be invited to Kids' Connection during the 10:30 service, and you can pick them up in the Kids' Area after worship. 

We are so much more interested in you rather than what you wear! Please wear whatever is comfortable for you; you will see people in a variety of clothing choices, so you don't have to worry about fitting in.

The main entrance will lead you into the Commons. You’ll find our Welcome Center in the middle and our Coffee Bar to your left. The Great Room (sanctuary) will be straight ahead. Coat racks are located along the halls to the right and left of the Great Room. Restrooms are located on the hall to your right. Our nursery and Kids' Area are to your left. The building is laid out on a square, so don't worry about getting lost--just keep walking!

Yes, we have a lower parking lot and upper parking lot. The upper lot is much smaller, but is closer to our main entrance and includes a number of handicapped parking spots.

We offer two worship services. The same message is shared at both.

8:30 a.m.The Traditional Service provides a blend of the great hymns and traditions of faith along with an informal attitude of caring and warmth.

10:30 a.m. – The Contemporary Service features music led by our Praise Team in a casual and welcoming atmosphere. 

Please feel free to check out a worship service anytime. You can find us online or on our Facebook page.
