Dear Friend,
This weekend at Mass, the Second Reading from Saint Paul is an homage to the gift of diversity. While Saint Paul may never had imagined the complexities of modern life, his wisdom holds true. We are wonderfully diverse and we celebrate as we recall the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday. The ability to value and appreciate our differences is one of our greatest strengths and an ongoing vision for us to pursue.
Thank you for who you are, and if you find that sometimes you find yourself having a different purpose than everyone else, it is even more a sign that you belong! You are part of Christ's Body in the world.
Key notifications for the week ahead at Saint Andrew Parish are listed below.

Broadcasters Needed!
Saint Andrew Parish continues to offer live streaming broadcasts of our Masses and special events in the church. That means we are in need of additional volunteer support this ministry. Please volunteer if you have or are willing to learn skills in how to use audio, visual, and live streaming equipment. We can teach you! OUR REQUEST IS URGENT AS WE HAVE UPCOMING WEEKENDS WITH NO COVERAGE. If interested, please contact David Heimann at david@standrew.org.
For your convenience, we've included a copy of the Sunday bulletin below.
We're called to participate fully in Mass by engagement with our mind, our heart, and our lived experiences through and with each other.
