Students

We know it is particularly important for students to feel a sense of belonging and purpose. We believe living in faith with other students is an important part of creating this. At St. Andrew, there are countless ways for students to connect, from Sunday School to mid-week small groups to any one of the dozens of special events throughout the year. Whatever your interests, there is an opportunity for you to make friends, have fun and learn how to walk closer with God.

Trips and Events

St. Andrew students have several opportunities to grow together on these special trips.

Student ministry is often a time when people make a life-long decision to follow Christ. It is also a time when people meet some of the best friends they will ever have. Come see what it’s all about on one of our trips or events, and discover how easy it is to engage with others in our student ministry.

Confirmation

Confirmands are youth in the 8th grade who learn about the meaning of Christian faith.

Through intentional instruction, programming, and reflection, Confirmands meet together to grow in their understanding of the fundamentals of the Christian faith. The journey through Confirmation is intended to help Students take ownership of their faith.
