Kids and Teens
Christian Education for All Ages
We are committed to helping kids and teens grow in their faith through age-appropriate learning, play, and community. Through programs like Godly Play, teen spiritual formation, and seasonal events, young people explore Bible stories, ask big questions, and discover how God’s love is part of their everyday lives—all in a safe, welcoming space where they’re known and valued.
Our Programs
Nursery Care

Professional and certified caregivers look after our littlest ones. You can pick up your child any time during or after the service.

Christmas for Kids
Christmas Eve, Tuesday 12/24 at 9:30 am

A no-rehearsal pick up pageant where everyone is invited to come early, pick up a costume, and help act out the story of the Magi as narrated by our teens.
Parenting in Community
Parenting groups offer a supportive space for moms, dads, and caregivers to connect, share, and grow together. Whether you're navigating sleepless nights, school challenges, or the joys and struggles of raising kids, these groups provide a place for honest conversation, lasting friendships, and spiritual encouragement. Together, we explore how faith shapes our parenting and how God's grace meets us in the everyday moments of family life.
Baptisms
Baptism is a communal sacrament marking our entry into the family of Christ and the church. Our baptismal covenant includes a vow that the congregation takes to those being baptized to “do all in our power to support them in their life in Christ.” We take this vow to heart, and nurture an intergenerational community where kids – and all people – are known, loved, and supported in their walk of faith.
Since we can only learn to live out our baptism in the context of Christian community, baptisms are done as part of our weekly Sunday services when the community is gathered. If you do not have a regular faith community – even if you don’t feel like St. Andrew’s is the one for you – we’ll be happy to talk and connect you with churches that might better fit what you’re looking for.
