S ’ L E G AN A lert October is Stewardship month! Stewardship is extremely important for Christian people because it gives us the opportunity to ask ourselves what is important in our lives. It also gives the opportunity to ask ourselves if belief in our Lord Jesus Christ and the belonging to St. Andrew’s Church family make a difference in who we are and how we react to life. By pledging to the parish and by supporting the ministries, we say clearly that we belong to this church family.

Please bring sides, salads & desserts. Bread, meat & drinks are provided. Signup to help set up or clean up. Also at Oktoberfest: Olive Wood Religious Art & Bethlehem Handicrafts sale. The Hannoona family will be visiting St. Andrew’s on Sunday, October 26, during the Oktoberfest to offer beautiful carved items for sale. For centuries, Bethlehem’s Christians have supported their families by carving religious art from olive wood for visiting pilgrims. However, political conflict prevents their families from reaching Bethlehem and many Christians from selling their art in Jerusalem. Adding to this, the number of pilgrims who visit the holy sites decreases during times of political strife which negatively affects the economy in Bethlehem. The situation is not expected to improve any time soon. Your purchase will go to support the Hannoona family and other Christians living in Bethlehem and the Holy Land. SAVE THE DATE: Trunk or Treat & Haunted House Friday, October 31, 6:00-7:30pm Sign up your decorated car & help to pass out candy (back counter). Place candy donations in container in back.
