Music Camp
July 17-21 • 9am-12pm • Children age 5-6th Grade
Kids in MusicCamp will spend one week learning a complete 35 minute musical and performing in a non-intimidating, welcoming, fun environment where everyone succeeds.
Join us for musical fun, games, snacks and crafts! In addition to learning music and drama, children will play games, eat healthy and delicious snacks, and make crafts related to the musical.
Registration
Come along on this Biblically-inspired, Won’t-Bend-Won’t-Bow-Won’t-Burn Babylonian epic, recounting the adventures of Daniel (“Danny,” as we call him in our 21st-century version of the story) and his bandmates, The Shacks (better known to you Bible scholars out there as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego!). In our re-telling of the story, three young Hebrew men named Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in conjunction with the prophet Daniel (of lion’s den fame), have a band called DANNY & THE SHACKS. They embark on a roller-coaster-thrill-ride of experiences as they encounter King Neb, his golden statue, some crazy Babylonians, the fiery furnace, and of course, the infamous lion’s den.
$50 per child or $90 per family
Performance
The performance is Friday, July 21st at 12pm and a few songs in church the morning of Sunday, July 23.
All registered children participate in the musical with the whole group. Children entering 2nd through 6th grades can audition for individual speaking parts in addition to participating with the whole group. All kids are provided with a t-shirt to wear for performances, and any additional costumes that may be necessary.

Spring at St. Andrew
Spring to life at St. Andrew
As we emerge from a long, cold winter, we can feel our spirits awaken to new life as the days grow longer, dormant plants begin to bud and sprout, creation stirs and sings around us, and we make room in our calendars for springtime activities. For many, spring is a season for deep cleaning and pruning what no longer brings us joy or life.
This spring, take some time to reflect on what may be dormant in your heart. What areas of your life long for the breath of new life? What seeds of hope and love could you plant or spread this season in the places where you live, work, and play?
We invite you to spring to life with St. Andrew. Throughout this season, we offer opportunities to celebrate and live the enduring story of love, grace, beauty, and resurrection that God can give us.

Winter with St. Andrew
Discover the beauty of the season and embrace the gifts of winter.
Winter can be a challenging season for many. As the excitement of the holidays fades and the cold weather keeps us indoors, our hearts crave the vibrancy of spring.
What if we could Embrace Winter, and possibly even learn to love it? Can winter be a season for exploring areas in our lives that long to grow or mend while the days are quiet?
Winter has its own beauty that offers rest, rejuvenation, and renewal. We invite you to explore Winter at St. Andrew. We offer an abundance of activities and opportunities for you and your loved ones.
