FUEL
Easter Sunday provides an excellent opportunity for St. Andrew high school students to serve our Savior. Click here to see what is available and to join the team for Easter breakfast.

Nurture resource
Do you have a college student in your life? Here is a suggestion. Buy them this devotion book as an Easter present. These devotions were written by college students for college students. It is a much better gift than a chocolate bunny. On second thought, how about you buy them both?

Impact
The book of Ruth is a beautiful love story, but so much more. Dr. Mark Paustian from Martin Luther College is here to lead us into this true story that highlights the faithfulness of God. You can listen to Impact here or wherever you find podcasts by searching “Kjenstad Impact.”

PowerHour
Children up to age 3 and their caregivers are invited to the next PowerHour. Join us on Friday, March 15, at 10:30 AM in the St. Andrew gym. The theme is “Habitats of the World.” Click here for more information on PowerHour.

Donut deliverer
Our usual bakery runner will be out of town March 17 and 24. The task can be done on your way to 8:00 worship. It will take you about 20 minutes “out of your way.” If you would like to step in, contact Pastor Clinton.

Service opportunity | Palm Sunday piece
Our Palm Sunday Cross Peace piece will be the palm branch folded into a cross. If you would like to help form these crosses (it’s easy, and tutorials/instructions are available), please contact Pastor Clinton. We will do this late during the week of March 17 and/or Sunday morning, March 24.

Service opportunity | Brat Fest
St. Andrew will again be a Brat Fest charity this Memorial Day weekend. Volunteers will interact with the community and earn donations for St. Andrew’s mission trips. The sign-up goes live on Friday, March 15. Just go to bratfest.com and sign up via the Bloomerang platform. Opportunities across several days abound, but they are filled on a first come, first served basis. Make sure to enter St. Andrew as your charity. Contact minimissions@st-andrew-online.org with any questions.

Service opportunity | Culver’s Share Night
Mark April 23 on your calendar for an opportunity to raise mission trip funds through Culver’s Share Night. Both patrons and volunteers will be essential. More information to come.

Monthly Mission Partner
Down syndrome affects only about 1 in 1500 (about the same percentage as a male being at least 6’6” or a female being at least 6’). This means Down syndrome is extremely overrepresented in the St. Andrew family. Our March Partner is GiGi’s Playhouse, a Down syndrome achievement center in Madison. Find more information about this organization’s activity at their website and/or watch the video below.
