Easter is Almost Here: And so is our annual egg hunt for the children! When we decorate our lawns in the front of the church with all those bright and colorful eggs on Saturday, April 3 at 4:30pm we draw children in from our community and have the opportunity to share Christ with new families! Everyone at St. Andrew’s can make this Easter celebration and ministry opportunity a huge success. We simply NEED EGGS and TREATS to stuff them with!!! Would you please be a part of this with us by dropping off any egg and candy donations inside the labeled tubs that are located in the Fellowship Area? Call Monica McAfee at 821-8328 with any questions. It will be such a blessing to have more eggs than we have ever had before! Thank you so much for your help.
ShareFest: ShareFest is an annual event created to highlight and celebrate the
ways our faith community touches the needs of our city. It is an opportunity for
the Church to inspire real hope and offer real help. On Saturday, April 17, St. Andrew’s will select a project (or two) that will be of significance to the community
- one act of kindness that blesses families, neighborhoods, or schools. We
have several projects we are looking at and hope you will want to be a part of this
city-wide event! Go to www.SharefestOKC.com for more information.
Maundy Thursday: On Thursday, April 1, we will celebrate Maundy
Thursday with a dinner at 6:00pm and a worship service at 7:00pm. We are
privileged to have Rachelle Trank from JEWS FOR JESUS as she comes to minister
to us as we celebrate Christ in the Passover. She will share the meaning behind
the Passover meal. We will share in song and communion in this service. If
you can help by providing a crock of soup, email Ginny at gpass@saokc.org.
Also, we invite everyone to bring a dessert to share. Invite a friend to be a part of
this exciting worship opportunity!
Good Friday: On Friday, April 2, we will hold a Tenebrae Service at
6:30pm. “Tenebrae” in Latin, means “shadows.” The purpose of a Tenebrae service
is to reflect deeply on the suffering and death of Christ for the purpose of our
redemption. It is a service of darkness. As we experience the various aspects of
the Passion story, 15 candles are gradually extinguished until we leave in darkness.
The drama team will portray “The Crucifixion” scene from The Choice.
Easter Celebration Services: Bring your family and friends to “Experience Easter” here at St. Andrew’s because we feel that what happened
2000 years ago still makes a difference today! Our Easter Celebration Services
will be held on Saturday, April 3, at 5:00pm and Sunday, April 4 at 8:00am,
9:30am, and 11:00am. Nursery for children ages 3 & under will be provided. No
Sunday school.
