Orientation Class
Welcome to St. Andrew's Family of Believers

“CALLED”
Mark 1:16-18, As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the sea ~ for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, “follow me and I will make you fish for people.”

For those new to St. Andrew’s we extend a warm and hearty welcome. In the early stage of Jesus’ ministry he answered a lot of questions about what it meant to follow him. Attend this informative session to get your questions answered about this community of faith. A tour of the campus is optional.

At this class you will be able to sign up for one of the Membership classes. Also you will be given a Request for Membership form and a Spiritual Gifts Analysis to develop your Servant Profile. These items can also be accessed online through the web site, under the About Us tab, Membership.

Discover the history and vision of this dynamic Lutheran congregation.


“PROCLAIM”
2 Corinthians 4:5-6, For we do not proclaim ourselves, we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus’ sake. For it is the God who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”...

“Proclaim Jesus Christ, Live in Christ, Serve!” A Mission Statement is really a purpose statement. It states the reason or purpose for which God created this church.. What specifically does that mission statement mean for us?

You’ll also have a chance to explore your spiritual gifts and how those gifts transform not only each individual but the church around you.

At the membership class you will be asked to set up a meeting with either Pastor Carlson, Kellie Cardinal, Nancy Clunis or Carrin Mahmood. The purpose of this meeting will be to answer any final questions you might have and make sure you feel connected to at least one area of ministry.

Please fill out and bring to the class the Membership Request Form and your Servant Profile.

Discover your unique gifts and connections to St. Andrew’s ministries.

To register for either the Orientation or Membership Class, contact Nancy Clunis at 651-762-9120. If you were not able to register it is still okay to attend an Orientation class. Most of the membership classes are off campus so you’ll want to register to get directions.

“LIVE” Galatians 2:19-20, For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.

Become a member of St. Andrew’s Lutheran Church as you are welcomed and commissioned at any one of our worship times during one of the Commissioning Weekends listed. At the membership class you’ll receive instructions about this process.

Discover the exciting power of new life He brings.

“SERVE”
1Cor. 12:7 – To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

In his final words to his disciples, Jesus gave them lessons on leadership, love, confidence, prayer and obedience. Having trained his disciples, he left the future of the church in their hands. There are many opportunities available from general Bible studies to classes for discovering your talents. Check out the Proclaim newsletter, it’s our best resource for making connections. It can be accessed on-line also at www.saintandrews.org

Use all that God has entrusted to you as a steward to transform the world.
