Outreach at St. Andrew's
The Outreach Committee at St. Andrew’s is committed to employing the time, talents and treasure of the church community by thoughtfully distributing the funds allocated for outreach and by exploring opportunities for our members to become involved in service to those in need. In some cases, our work involves financially supporting worthy efforts by nonprofit organizations and in other cases, we contribute our time with hands-on service.
Our Commitment is to make a difference.
Cleaning Out Your Pantry? Consider our Red Bag Ministry |
Our Outreach ministry adopted from a Bidding Prayer... "let us remember in his name the poor and the helpless, hungry and the homeless; the lonely and the unloved; the abused, the exploited, the hated, and the oppressed; the sick and all the mourn; the lonely and the unloved; the aged and the little children”. St. Andrews donates 10% of its budget to organizations that help to fulfill this mission.
The Outreach Committee seeks to assist members of the parish in answering the call of Christ to love our neighbors as ourselves. St Andrew’s supports evangelistic and social action projects, primarily local, but also, to a lesser degree regional, and global levels. The committee decides how to allocate and coordinate our gifts. We also try to have hands-on volunteers help with worthy causes. We have monthly meetings November thru April. The following are the programs with which we have been involved, given financial donations, and personally provided volunteer help in 2024-2025:
We always welcome new members and/or ideas. For more information please contact Joan Farrar, chair of committee. [email protected] or 707-812-4768 |
Baptisms
The Sacrament of Baptism is celebrated as part of a regular liturgy of the church. It is a joyful occasion for the congregation to welcome its newest member, and the whole church shares responsibility for the individuals future Christian education.

Weddings
In the Episcopal Church, marriage is celebrated within the context of the Church’s life of prayer, worship, and witness; the rubrics of the Book of Common Prayer and the Canons of the Church set the foundational norms for the solemnization of Holy Matrimony.

Funerals
The death of someone we dearly love is one of the most difficult and painful times in one's life. Our clergy and the members of our Church are here to provide Pastoral Care. Please notify the church as soon as possible so that a member of the clergy may call and help with your needs.
