 An Illuminating Idea: Light Bulb Replacement Project

Going Green! Over the next month or so, we’d like to change the incandescent flood lights in the sanctuary with Compact Fluorescent light bulbs. There are over 50 bulbs to replace which will cost about $300.

Please contribute so we can afford to replace these light bulbs and become energy efficient. In the long run, it will save a large amount of electricity. ~ Craig

St. Andrew’s is starting a program to BRING TO CHURCH a few of our homebound, and those living in assisted living residences. They really miss attending their church and interacting with us. You do not have to be certified as a Lay Eucharist Visitor to participate.

Please contact Paul LeMenager for more information.

Needed: New Green Chasuble

St. Andrew's is in serious need of a new green chasuble and related vestments for our Priest. The current one has exceeded its lifespan despite numerous repairs.

This will also involve purchasing another altar cloth. Unfortunately, the price tag for all these items could run up to $2,000.00.

We're hoping that members of St. Andrew's or the families of former members will see this as an opportunity and will donate towards this purchase - perhaps in memory of loved ones. Please contact Scott or any vestry member if you are able to contribute. 610-865-3603 or saec@ptd.net.
