St Andrews Lutheran Church

This church has the most amazing preschool on the planet! My two grandchildren each attended preschool for three years before kindergarten. This school has the most attentive, creative, loving teachers. I was constantly impressed by their ever changing things for the children to experience. Each day they have several stations set up in the play yard. One may have water play, another mixing and sorting, another sand play, etc. I can honestly say that I never saw a play station repeated. Day after day, week after week and month after month they consistently came up with new and creative ways for the children to play and learn. All interactions the teachers had with the children were loving and hands on. The teachers had infinite patience and treated all the children the same, whether they were darling sweet little ones or raging brats. They taught each of the children patience and understanding with their interactions with each other. I was impressed over and over again with their care. They casually and easily patted, hugged, smiled and interacted with all the children individually. This school is impressive! Do not hesitate to enroll your little one. You will not be disappointed.

I grew up Catholic, went to Catholic high school, and was grounded if I didnt go to church. I always knew there was a God and believed in one, but I could not stand and actually hated going to church. And you know what? All that has changed…
My fiancé is Lutheran and this is the church we are getting married at. Im not going to get into religion etc. This is only a review on the actual church itself and the pastors.
Pastor Andy and Manuel are the pastors here. They are both super friendly and always make you feel welcome. Pastor Andy is actually going to be the one to marry us come September. We started to come here on Saturday night and will continue to do so for years to come. Saturday night is the casual service. The pastors wear jeans and tshirts and pastor Manuel has a sweet, gigantic Jesus belt buckle. Its pretty cool! Anyways… they have a band there on Sat and most of the service is alot of singing. Not boring church Allelujia singing mind you… more upbeat songs which you can actually tap your foot to. The service only lasts for about an hour so its in and out and on with your Saturday evening.
Like I was saying earlier, I use to HATE going to church and got nothing out of it. That has changed since coming here. I actually kind of look forward to it every Saturday… and for me that is rare… but with the nice people that go there and pastor Andy at the helm it is really an enjoyable experience and I feel better after I leave. Cant complain about that. God does work in mysterious ways.
