St. Andrew’s offers many opportunities for involvement. The following will give you an idea of what is available. Please feel free to contact the office with any questions, if you need help finding where to jump in, or to sign up!

Becoming a member – We encourage you to attend worship services and other activities at St. Andrew’s to see if St. Andrew’s feels like the right church for you. If you have any questions about the church and membership, you may speak to Rev. Elizabeth Randall or Rev. George Magnuson.

Acolytes – The acolytes of St. Andrew’s serve God in the Church and in this parish by preparing for, assisting and participating with the clergy and people in the celebration of public worship on Sundays and Holy Days. Acolytes play an instrumental role in Sunday and Holy Day worship with the parish throughout the year. See acolyte schedule. Contact: Jean Rafsnider

Altar Guild – The altar guild prepares all the things necessary for the celebration of the Eucharist or other sacraments and offices of the church, as well as light housekeeping duties (candles, linens, holy water, brass followers, and so on). Contact: Ann Luke

Childcare/Children’s Ministry – Regular childcare for infants through age 4 and programs for children are provided each Sunday. We always need volunteers to support this important ministry. Contact: Kathy Fleming

Choir – Under the direction of choirmaster Timothy J. Krueger, The St. Andrew’s Choir leads the congregational music, enhancing the liturgy and ennobling our collective praise. Members of the choir have been very committed to weekly rehearsals and services as well as times such as Advent, Christmas, and Holy Week. Learn More

Coffee Hour Host – Every Sunday, individuals, families, or groups host coffee hour after the services. In addition to bringing some food, hosts help set up and clean up the room, and meet and greet visitors and friends, making everyone feel welcomed at St. Andrew’s. We are grateful for the steady, persistent, and gracious way that so many people volunteer to host coffee hour. Many people have done so repeatedly; many have shared a special birthday or anniversary by hosting coffee hour. It is such a wonderful way to meet new friends and to welcome newcomers into our life together that it is a ministry that is not only important, but very easy and enjoyable. Contact: Barbara Becker.

Education – The mission of St. Andrew’s Adult Forum is to provide thoughtful, spiritual education for Christian living grounded in the Episcopal Church’s devotional, theological and literary traditions. Learn more

Eucharistic Visitors – A Eucharistic Visitor is a lay person authorized to take the Consecrated Elements in a timely manner immediately following the Sunday celebration of Holy Eucharist to members of the St. Andrew’s congregation who, by reason of illness or infirmity, are unable to be present at the celebration of the Holy Eucharist on any given Sunday. The role of Eucharistic Visitor is defined by the national canons of the Episcopal Church, and each Eucharistic Visitor is trained and licensed by the Diocese of Colorado and serves under the direction of the clergy. This ministry involves a significant commitment of time on any given Sunday. Our Eucharistic Visitors can be visiting anywhere from 2 to 6 persons in home, hospital or care facility settings as they engage in a relational ministry of presence as well as carrying the sacrament. Contact:  Pam Stewart

E-Z Ministry – E-Z Ministry is dedicated to providing rides for those without transportation, enabling them to attend church services. Rides are rotated amongst volunteers so no one person is burdened, an E-Z way to help. Contact: Selena Billington or Sue Glassmacher

St. Benedict’s Guild – Members of St. Benedict’s Guild read the Old and New Testament lessons for each Sunday and holy day service. In addition, Guild members greet visitors at the door, distribute bulletins, assist with seating of members and guests, count the number of people present, and represent the congregation in presenting the offering of gifts for each service. See Lectionary. Contact: Maryann O’Brien

Visitor Welcoming Committee – The Welcoming Committee sends a letter of greeting and information about the church to those who sign our visitor register in the narthex. We offer to answer questions, meet with visitors and introduce guests to the congregation. On Sundays we are also on the alert to greet people who are new faces to us, invite them to coffee hour and engage them in conversation. Contact: Rev. George Magnuson
