New Hire
It is my pleasure to introduce our new STEM and Math teacher, Ms. Molly Byrne.

Please join us for a welcome coffee at 8:15 a.m. on Wednesday, November 19, to meet Ms. Byrne and extend a warm Saint Andrew welcome.

Season of Stewardship
At Sunday Masses last week and through November 16, Fr. Hank is inviting our Saint Andrew community to prayerfully consider our gifts of Time, Talent, and Treasure. As we reflect on how we can steward these gifts in the coming year, he asks for our generosity in supporting Saint Andrew Parish. Please visit www.standrew.org/stewardship to learn more about this annual appeal.
