ST. ANDREW'S Episcopal CHURCH

Welcome
Welcome
For over 130 years now, St. Andrew's has welcomed people into a community of faith "beside the tracks" in downtown Ayer, Massachusetts. When people describe St. Andrew's they use words like: 'welcome,' 'relaxed,' and 'accepting.' We believe that a church should be a community that embraces the uniqueness of each individual. We welcome and care for all people at every stage of their spiritual journey, and we seek to create opportunities for faith in God to be discovered, renewed and put into action.
Read our welcome message!
We welcome the faithful, the doubtful, the hopeful, and those who haven’t decided yet. Whoever you are, this is a place of journey, not judgment.
Mission
Mission
We seek to grow in faith as individuals and as a community, to glorify God as revealed in Jesus Christ and to nurture those around us. We reach out to share His Word and His Love with all people, especially those in need.

Teen Events
Teen Events
Upcoming events for teens include: Sunday afternoon formation with Rev. Mia, Habitat for Humanity builds, and a City Reach trip.
CityReach involves teens from St. Andrew's who will be joined by teens from the Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church and the Unitarian Universalist Church of Groton in March. With chaperones and volunteers, the teens packed up and headed to The Cathedral Church of St. Paul in Boston to spend a night helping the unhoused.
Adult Formation
Adult Formation
Adult forums in Lent (11:15 am each Sunday) are focused on prayer. How do we pray as a community on Sundays? How do we care for our prayer list? What is private confession in the Episcopal Church?
Our Episcopal 101 course is preparing adults for confirmation, reception, and baptism this Easter and May.
