ST. ANDREW'S Episcopal CHURCH
Embedded Files
Welcome
For over 135 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.
Please read our welcome message!
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.
"Will you strive for Justice & Peace, and respect the Dignity of every human being?"
Rooted in the Baptismal Covenant, this promise reminds us that following Christ is lived out through striving for justice and peace and honoring the dignity of every person.

Dedication - Ayer's Newest Habitat Homes
Tuesday, March 10 - 10:00 AM
Habitat for Humanity North Central District is pleased to announce the Dedication Ceremony for 12 Newton Street in Ayer. All supporters and volunteers are welcomed to attend, including us of course St. Andrew's! The closing on this duplex housing providing homes for two families will take place at the end of March, when homeowners assume obligations for their mortgage, upkeep, and related expenses and take occupancy. How exciting! Finally, these two young families can move out of cramped basements where they have been living and can get resettled in local Ayer-Shirley schools.

Sunday, March 15 - 11:15 AM
Our City Reach teens, Elliot M. and Aneliese E., will present about their experience at CityReach distributing the winter clothing we donated to unhoused folks in Boston.
