Welcome to St. Andrews. I would like to introduce you to our Sunday morning Small Groups. Our mission at St. Andrew’s is “To make Disciples of Jesus Christ.” Disciple making is very Important to us. We fully believe that being in a small group is imperative for you to grow into a mature disciple. Don’t think that a Sunday morning group is only about study, it is also about fellowship. Being a part of an ongoing group of people who care for, pray for, and encourage you is worth more than gold or silver. No matter how independent we are, each of us needs the support of others because that is how God created us. Together, people find the miracles of God through the workings and understandings of the people around us. There is good reason to join us in “Making Disciples.”
If you are participating in Sunday Worship services only and are not part of a Sunday morning group, then I encourage you to consider attending one of the groups meeting at 9:30 or 10:50 a.m. Our groups know to expect first-time visitors and they will welcome you with open arms.

9:30 a.m. Groups |
DISCOVERY – Ministry Training Center Room B1 -
Mark Day leads this class which is a diverse cross section of friends: politically moderate, mostly middle aged adults, many with adolescent and young-adult children. Often coordinating with the Pastor’s sermon, lessons center on interpretation and application of the messages of the Bible as they relate to today’s society. There is usually lively discussion laced with humor where all viewpoints are encouraged. Members of this class also enjoy a variety of social activities outside of class.

EAGLES – Ministry Training Center, Room B6 –Our class name comes from
Isaiah 40:31...but those who hope in the Lord will
renew their strength. They will soar on wings like
eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they
will walk and not be faint. We are a familyfocused
group of 30-, 40-, 50-somethings
(couples, singles and parents) who put our hope in
the Lord. We meet at 9:30am for “breakfast chat”
followed by our Sunday school study and ending
with prayer. We always welcome newcomers to
the class and offer opportunities throughout the
year for community mission projects and social
gatherings. So whether you are new to faith, new
to St. Andrew’s, or simply looking for a new Sunday
school, you can find a place with the Eagles. Hope to see you there! For pictures click HERE |
KOINONIA –Ministry Training Center , Room B10 - Koinonia is Greek for “fellowship and sharing in common communion”.
This class is made up of loving, caring mature

Jerry Aylor as well as other class members who
teach a lesson periodically. We enjoy getting together

in numerous ministries in the church. Our members
include a medical missionary team, several
Stephen Ministers, Sunday school teachers, and Disciple
class leaders. We support St. Andrew’s through
mission projects such as Santa’s Cause, Grace Fellowship,
Whiz Kids, and other community outreach
programs. We are a large class but always welcome
