PROJECT JOY

Project Joy is a ministry of St. Andrew’s dedicated to serving those in need in our community by providing canned goods, clothing, and toiletry items. Your donations make a real difference and are always appreciated!

St. Andrew’s provides a donation bin in the breezeway between the upper patio and the main sanctuary entrance, where you can easily drop off your contributions. Donation receipts are available from the church office upon request.

Thank you for helping us share Christ’s love in such a practical way!

F.A.I.T.H. MINISTRIES

F.A.I.T.H. stands for Friends Assisting & Inspiring The Homeless, and our ministry’s goal is to help individuals move from the streets into stable housing.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we host a table during the Sack Lunch Program in Fellowship Hall. There, we meet with individuals who are ready to take the next step. Through intake conversations, we learn what services they are seeking, pray with them, and invite them into our church community. St. Andrew’s also provides a mailing address, which allows them to receive important documents and access essential services.

After intake, we connect individuals with partner organizations such as PATH (People Assisting the Homeless) and Harbor Interfaith, who provide resources and housing support. Once someone has secured housing, we celebrate by giving them a house blessing kit and offering a special house blessing.
