Christian Formation
Instead of traditional Sunday School for the 2023-2024 school year, we will be changing the format to six intergenerational programs. Our goal is for these programs to include Godly play lessons for preschool children, other programming for school age children and an intergenerational program, all of which will follow the 10:30am service.

ONE HUNDRETH ANNIVERSARY SKINNER ORGAN RESTORATION!
The Vestry, in consultation with the Organ Committee and Mark Skladan, the Interim Music Director, has decided that the inner workings of the organ console are in desperate need of revitalization. As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the EF Skinner organ in our church we embark on a campaign to raise funds with the hope of starting and completing the project before Christmas.
The cost of replacing and updating the inner workings of the organ console is approximately $90k. The vestry has determined that work can proceed when half the amount has been raised. To contribute, place a check in the offering plate or send into the church office with “organ restoration” in the memo. When work is complete, Rev. June will bless the organ and contributors will be recognized with a plaque on the console. Your donations will ensure that music fills St. Andrew’s for the next 100 years!
SUPPORTING THE “FREEDGE”
The “Freedge” is a community refrigerator designed for sharing food. It’s a place where people can leave surplus food items for others to take and enjoy, reducing food waste and promoting community connections. We are actively supporting this ministry by asking parishioners to bring items with them on Sunday’s and place them in the refrigerator in the small kitchen on the marked shelf. Volunteers then take the donations to the Freedge which is located at the Elyria Public Library South Branch, 340 15th St, Elyria, OH 44035. To help, you can donate perishable items anytime or make a financial donation. Learn more about Southside Pride, the organization that made the Freedge possible.
COMMUNITY MEALS
Our program currently offers “To-Go” meals served outside our door on Holly Lane. We expect to continue serving “To-Go” meals for the foreseeable future. Please check Facebook, our website and calendar for updates as we faithfully move forward. We will serve the first Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday, the second Monday and the fourth Monday and Wednesday of the month from 6 – 6:30 pm or until all guests have been served.
