Worship Online with United Church of Canada Moderator
The Right Rev. Dr. Richard Bott
Though we can’t be together in person we can still stay connected. The news is filled with creative ways that we can stay in touch so that while alone we are not lonely. People are reaching out using FaceTime, Hang Outs, Zoom, Skype, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, and yes, even old-fashioned ways like telephone and email.
Churchgoers are also missing gathering on Sundays to worship and hear messages from scripture that give us strength, grace and peace in the face of very difficult changes in our lives. To combat this, we can worship online.
Beginning Sunday, March 22, 2020, United Church of Canada Moderator Richard Bott, will be offering an online worship service each Sunday for the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak.
This will be a video-recorded service you can join on the web at:

“Celebrate Soil”
The human race is dependent on soil for food. In many countries around the world soil erosion and poisoning of the soil has led to famine. And, soil erosion contributes to climate change as carbons are released into the atmosphere when soil erodes.
Whether you farm hundreds of acres or tend a small backyard garden, understanding how to manage your soil is key to healthy, sustainable crops.
Join Paul and Jean Sullivan, from Sullivan Agro as they help us think about, learn about, and celebrate soil. Whether its cover crops, tillage, technology, compaction, nutrition, soil life or rotation, we’ll discuss the soil and how to care for and sustain it well into the future.
Please note that the start time for this event only is being moved from 7:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

7:00 p.m.
Featuring the lush vocals of Shann Bailey and the original songs of Timothy Trieste, from the group's adult contemporary album, the concert features a 5-piece band with some of Ottawa and Toronto's most accomplished musicians.
With styles ranging from singer-songwriter, to adult pop, to jazz, the concert aspires to also be a real stage show with a series of unique narrations which tie the songs together, featuring short stories written for the stage from Trieste's forthcoming book. The poetic songs and stories weave together the big themes of existence: love, loss, our purpose in nature and the greater universe, and the personal experiences we all share in making our way through life.

Volunteers Make the World Go 'Round
The New Year is just around the corner and we are looking for volunteers to help with the work of the church in 2019 and beyond.
We each bring something unique to the table and there is a place at St. Andrew's for your particular talents, skills and experience.
What is it you like to do? Whatever it is you can do it at St. Andrew’s and make a positive difference in our community.
Please check out the descriptions of committees and positions on the About Us page of this site.
We are asking that you contact the chairs of any committees that might be of interest to you to discuss how you can get involved.
Your appointment, should you choose to help, will be made at the Annual General Meeting on February 17, 2019, right after service.
Thank you for your thinking about how you can help!
