Middle School Ministry
 Our Mission
Youth Ministry at St. Andrew’s is…a community of young people who are living lives of love, discipleship and service through the grace of Jesus Christ.
We Welcome Erin Morris to our Youth Team
We welcome Diaconal Minister Erin Morris, team leader of our youth ministries. Erin will lead the Middle School and High School ministries at St. Andrew’s. Her first Sunday will be Dream Day, Sunday, Sept. 7.
Erin Morris hails from a small rural town in Southern Ohio. She majored in Sociology at Berea College in Berea, Kentucky, and became certified in Youth and Family Ministry through the Center for Youth Ministries at Wartburg Seminary, and has a Masters of Arts with a Concentration in Youth, Culture and Mission from Wartburg Seminary. In September of 2003 she accepted a call to Bethany Lutheran Church in Denver, Colorado as the Director of Youth Ministries and was consecrated as a Diaconal Minister in the ELCA. Erin comes to us with a sense of call to work in team ministry, to help a congregation vision how to bring youth and families to an ever deepening relationship with Christ, and a desire to empower all to know and use the gifts given to them by God.
God Squad
God Squad is a group of middle school students who are committed to helping with various ministries of St. Andrew's and serving the community. This is a team of students that will shape the ministry, as well as giving them the opportunity to personally invest themselves in an area of interest. God Squad members will have the opportunity to serve in many ways. Some commitments are long term, such as ushering, others are event-by-event based, such as Vacation Bible School. There are two required training events throughout the year. To get involved simply fill out a God Squad application and turn it in to any of the youth staff. We will then review your application and plug you into ministry. Sign up now! Contact Sally for more information at 651-762-9130.
