About Us

Welcome!
Welcome to Mosaic at St. Andrew UMC. We are sorry we cannot meet with you in person in our building at this time but hope you will join us for worship online either on Facebook or on YouTube. We post worship for families at 10:15 am and for children at 9:30 am. If you don’t make it for that time they are archived on YouTube and Facebook.
We are a community church and welcome community groups into our building. We have several community partners. Our church charters two Boy Scout troops and our facility is used by FIRST Lego League teams, Girl Scout troops, Narcotics Anonymous, and the Oak Tree Corner Center for Grieving Children. If your community organization would like to gather at St. Andrew, please contact us.
As a congregation we are seeking to be faithful followers of Jesus Christ and strive to live our lives loving God and one another. If you need prayer or have questions please contact the pastor at pastor@standrewumchurch.org.
Our Mission
St Andrew is named for the disciple Andrew, who was a fisherman by trade. Andrew was the first disciple drawn to Christ and who brought Peter and others into contact with Jesus. Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fish for people” (Matthew 4:19). This is still our mission today.
The people of Mosaic at St. Andrew UMC have been called by God to EMBRACE, EQUIP, and ENCOURAGE persons of all ages to live as faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. Matthew 28:19-20.
Worship and Sunday School
Our worship schedule on Sunday mornings when we are not “Staying At Home”
8:15 am Worship – small gathering in the chapel for worship which includes scripture, hymns, prayers and message.

Children begin worship in the sanctuary and then leave for “Wow Worship for Kids”. Children must be signed in and registered prior to worship.
