Back to the School of Jesus: An Aphorism for the Teacher – Dr. Ross Lockhart

Back to the School of Jesus: An Aphorism for the Teacher – Dr. Ross Lockhart

September 12, 2021 – 9:30 am Sunday Worship Service

It's back to school season right across the country.  So too in the Church.  After all, the Church is the School of Jesus.  We're enrolling in another semester of study with Rabbi Jesus, and in our reading from the lectionary this week there is much to ponder when it comes to the kind of student . . . or disciple . . . that God would have us be.
To prepare for Sunday worship, read:  James 3: 1-12

Please join us for in-person worship at 9:30 Sunday morning (no need to register); or the link below will be updated Sunday morning by 9:00 am to take you to our live streamed service.

Facilities Team – Seeking New Leadership

Facilities Team – Seeking New Leadership

Flemming Nielsen has blessed St. Andrew’s with his leadership of the Facilities Team for the past year and we are immensely grateful for his dedication to this position.

Flemming promised us a year of service from the outset, and we are looking for a person(s) to take on the role by the end of 2021. In order to reduce the volunteer hours for this position, Session suggests the responsibilities could be shared by two people - either Co-convenors or a Convenor and a Vice-Convenor. The responsibilities could be divided in accordance with the interests of the people assuming the roles.  If you are interested or know someone who might be interested in either position, please contact Rhonda Wishart of Session Rhonda.wishart@icloud.com or the church office at 403-255-0001. The more detailed mandate of the Facilities Team is available on request.

Check your September 2nd email to find the survey.
