The month of February was action packed with several events and opportunities. I especially enjoyed connecting with so many of you that attended our Annual Meeting & Souper Bowl of Caring and Pizza Bingo events! Both events had very strong participation which demonstrates how much you value our church and relationships here.
During our Annual Meeting we voted in a new member to Vestry, and two members retired as they completed their terms. A big welcome and thank you to Chiara Behm joining our team for Music/Altar Guild/Worship! Your time and talents are valued, and we appreciate your commitment to be part of our leadership at St. Andrew’s Church. And one last big thank you to Carly Landis and Beth Butch as they transition off Vestry. You both will be greatly missed! If you happen to see any of them at coffee hour or somewhere around the church, please extend appreciation to those serving our church. We have an excellent team of people on the Vestry, and those serving have a big and generous heart in leading their areas of ministry to support the mission of St. Andrew’s.
