Dear Friend,
“Why are we here?” St. Andrews Baptist Church has answered that question by embracing a simple statement that guides our church’s life.
Our One Priority is to worship and serve God by connecting people to Jesus and each other.
This priority leads us to focus our church life upon becoming and making disciples, mature followers of Jesus who honor him in every area of our lives. We invite you to join us on this exciting journey. You can gain a glimpse of church life through the window of this web page, but you won’t know the blessing of belonging until you experience our church in person.
We hope to see you soon at St. Andrews!

Starbucks, Xmas, and nativity bans-Losing the battle over Christmas
Luke 2:1-7
Dear St. Andrews Family,
I have a job for you. I want you to find someone to tell you the 3-minute version of the Christmas story. Get them to throw in all the details they know. What was the king's name, what did they wrap the baby in, how many animals in the stable? If you have children in the home, ask them together and let them work on the story together. If you can’t find anyone to ask, then try the experiment yourself. Then read the actual story in Luke 2. Maybe read some from Matthew 1 and 2. Notice how far off the story you have in your mind is from the story in the Bible.
Now ignore your mistakes and realize that your story is really good, too. The question is, why is this story told? What is our takeaway? What should we do? I think the answer might surprise you.
