For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.

Thanksgiving Day Meal

St. Andrew’s is hosting a FREE Thanksgiving Day Meal for any, and all, who would like to join us for a “full spread” meal. This will be our 8th year and we have been blessed each year to share this time with so many others! Your support and donations, each year, have enabled us to do this. Each year some person or family in need has been blessed because of gracious and generous monetary donations received the day of the meal.
You are invited to come and share the day with family or friends, familiar and new. We will serve from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. There is no charge for the meal. We will serve eat-in or take-out meals. We only ask that you contact the church office at (570) 682-3508 to register, for either eat-in or take-out. We would like to have a count by November 19th.

                                If you forget to register or your plans change, we welcome all walk-ins on Thanksgiving Day! 

Help is needed on Wednesday, the day before, for setting up the fellowship hall, as well as prepping food. Thanksgiving Day, we will need help with cooking, serving, and clean-up. Pies, cakes, pumpkin rolls, or cobblers will be needed, and perhaps some other meal items (Watch bulletins for any items needed).

 Donation / Volunteer sheets will be in the Fellowship Hall. Any Youth interested with helping will receive Community Service hours.  If there are any questions, please contact Karen at 570-590-7330.

5th Quarter - Watch for updates during the Next Football Season.

St. Andrews will once again host the youth of our community after every home football game until 11:00pm. Grades 5-12 enjoy table games, fellowship, and free pizza and snacks. Volunteers are needed (background checks required to be on file in our office). Donations of individual bags of chips, soda, and water as well as financial contributions are welcomed. See Steve Reitz for more information or to volunteer. See Cathy Miller to submit your background check information.
