AN EASY WAY TO VOLUNTEER AND ASSIST WITH WORSHIP

We have many opportunities each Sunday for assistance with our worship. These include being an assisting minister, usher, greeter, communion server, stream team member or nursery volunteer.  Are you interested in assisting with worship but find it hard to do it on a regular schedule? Saint Andrew has a new solution for you, an online signup where you decide how you are willing to help and the particular dates and times.  Click here to access the “Worship Assistance at Saint Andrew”.

EMERGENCY FOOD BASKETS

For those in need, Saint Andrew will again begin distributing emergency food baskets. If you know of someone who could use a food basket, please contact the church office. 

RESTOCKING OUR PANTRIES

At the beginning of the pandemic, Social Ministry donated all the food and supplies that were on hand in the food pantry to central distribution centers in our community. Now all these months later, the ministry has decided to resume some pre-pandemic activities. We are looking for items for emergency food baskets, Easter food baskets, Wausau Warming Center cleaning supplies and our Lenten hygiene drive.

A collection area will be set up in the Fellowship Hall for donated items. CLICK HERE for a printable shopping list of the items we are collecting.

GIVE TO THE EMERGENCY RESPONSE FUND
OF LUTHERAN WORLD RELIEF

Your generous gift to the Lutheran World Relief emergency response fund will deliver urgent support, like temporary shelter and critically needed care and supplies for families who lost their homes.
You will reach children, women and men with the care they need RIGHT NOW, helping them endure immediate hardships and easing their suffering.
Thank you for sharing your God-given spirit of love. 

CABIN FEVER CRAFTING!
Wed, Mar 29th

Cabin fever got you? Need to get out of the house? Join us in the Activity Room!
Bring your craft along and socialize while you crochet, knit, rubber stamp, cross stitch, paint, sculpt, sketch, make jewelry, sort your supplies, etc. etc. Join in when your schedule allows. All are welcome!
Want to try your hand at something new and create unique, one-of-a-kind cards and small pieces of art? Pam Clark will be in the activity room from noon to evening to help!  Even if you don’t consider yourself creative or artistic, within two hours you will have a completed piece and a sense of accomplishment. You will leave the class with completed art and maybe a new sense of what is possible for you to create. All supplies will be provided for your use. Watercolor and acrylic paints will be used. Feel free to bring your favorite supplies along if you have them. There is no charge for this class, but a free will donation in the “Saint Andrew Art Jar” is always appreciated to keep updating and renewing art supplies as necessary.
