For children age 3 through 5th Grade, Sunday School is offered during the school year. With the guidance of our Church in Society Committee, the children learn to care for people in our community and beyond by giving their monetary or in-kind offerings to various programs. Programs they have supported include: Shelter Network (homeless), ELLIPSE (care of persons with HIV/AIDS), Samaritan House (emergency homeless), CORA (abuse prevention), Heifer International, ELCA World Hunger, ELCA Disaster Relief, Help One Child (supporting Foster Families), and the Church in Jerusalem (Evangelical Lutheran Church in the Holy Land and Jordan).

Confirmation Class for students in Grades 6 through 8 meets on Sunday mornings during the school year. Students learn the basics of their Lutheran faith and progress into full adult membership in the church.

Midweek Nursery School is a two-mornings a week educational opportunity for children 3 and 4 years old. Established in 1967, the preschool does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarships, and other school administered programs. Classes rotate on an annual basis between children that are 3 and 4 years old. In September 2011 a new class will begin for children who will be three years old by December 2011. Please contact the church office for more information. The school is eligible to receive Thrivent Choice DollarsSM from Thrivent for Lutherans members.

As part of the W-ELCA, St. Andrew’s has two “Circles,” which are small groups of women who get together in homes or at church once a month for Bible study, prayer, fellowship, and refreshments. The Circles are: Elizabeth Circle, which meets on the third Tuesday of each month at Noon; and Martha Circle, which meets on the second Thursday at 6:30 a.m. All women of the congregation are invited to participate.

St. Andrew's is honored to be a Teaching Parish site for Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary (PLTS). Located in Berkeley, Calif., PLTS prepares students for their life's vocation of service and leadership.
