St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church
Hello Friends, thanks for visiting the website to learn more about St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church. I like this church; it’s a good place to work and a good place to be an explorer of religious faith, as well as someone who has been in the Episcopal world for some time. There are lots of different kinds of people who are here for many different reasons.
Some of our people want to study and are working hard to ask questions and to integrate their faith in a post-modern 21st-century world. And they want to teach their children and teenagers about Christianity but are unsure how to go about it.
On the other hand, some parishioners are comfortable with their faith as it is and are happy to serve the community, love their neighbors by working in the food pantry or Habitat for Humanity, and make new friends.
Still others are passionate for social justice on a larger scale: for the earth, the poor, the outsiders, and peaceful coexistence, and they feel Christ is calling them to be activists at St. Andrew’s.
If you are trying to imagine what this church is like and what it feels like before you attend on Sunday morning or before you get involved in some of our social action ministries, then please watch the visitor video or click on the contact tab to find ways to get specific questions answered.
Warmest Regards,
Fr. David Archibald

I’ve been an educator for a long time–primarily as a teacher or instructional assistant in preschools through community college levels and as a developer/administrator of early childhood education and teacher training programs.

Darrin is married to Sharon and they have a son, Evan. He also teaches private vocal and piano lessons – which he will be doing from St. Andrew’s – so, if you or your kids want an excellent teacher, you might want to hit him up.
