Adult Ministry

Welcome to Adult Ministry
Welcome to Adult Ministry

A disciple is one who seeks to follow Jesus and grow in relationship with God, one another, and the world.

St. Andrew’s Adult Discipleship Ministry invites you to join us in growing together as we ask questions, go deeper in our faith toward a closer relationship with Jesus. There are many opportunities available – Alpha, Men’s and Women’s Bible Studies, Life Together Groups, Conversation Groups, and Sunday Classes, as well as Beyond Sunday Seminars.
