Fellowship Opportunities
Dinner with Friends
Dinner with Friends is a great opportunity to meet new St. Andrew friends! A group of six to eight adults dines together once a month. This is a short-term commitment (four months) and doesn’t take a lot of your time, but you’ll really benefit from getting to know more St. Andrew members on a more personal basis. We have several types of groups from which to choose: the Traditional-All Ages in homes, Dining Out-All Ages, Dining Out for Young Singles, and Dining Out for Couples with Young Children, Dining Out for ElderSingles, and Dining Out for Widow(er)s. The Traditional Group is typically eight persons with each household taking a turn hosting a meal in their home once during the four months. The host provides the main course and the other members of the group contribute other parts of the meal. In the Dining Out format, groups of six persons rotate the responsibility of choosing an area restaurant to sample each month. It’s a great opportunity to get a sitter and enjoy stimulating adult conversation. The Dining Out for Young Singles groups are designed for persons who are younger than 35 and single. The Dining Out for Couples with Young Children is for parents of pre-teen children. Dining out for ElderSingles is designed for persons 50+ who are single or divorced. And, last but not least, is the Dining Out for Widow(er)s.

Prime Time
Prime Timers are retired people who meet for lunch the second Friday of each month, September – May. We enjoy our time together by meeting at 11:30 am, in the West Gathering Space and dining on a delicious meal provided by Martha Thompson, a super cook, for $5.00 a person. If you enjoy good food and fellowship, come meet the group. All are welcome. Please contact Shirley Long for more information.
Moms Like Eve
A new group is forming and will meet 1st and 3rd Fridays. Just like Eve, none of us is perfect, but we can learn from her example and each other as mothers, women and followers of God. This group fosters friendships through support, learning about exciting new trends and revisiting tried-n-true methods. We will learn from speakers, discussions and outreach. Please join us June 18 for our Welcoming Pot-Luck Brunch. Your children are cared for by loving caregivers (one week notice required).
Seafarers
"Our Mission is to provide Christian fellowship, service, and support for St. Andrew and the community"
These groups meet to offer Christian fellowship, service, and support for our church and community. These groups provide a great opportunity for both old and new members of St. Andrew to be together in a small group setting for social or service-related activities. Current groups include: Friend Ship, Fellow Ship, Kin Ship, and Relation Ship. Contact Rev. Dale Wood (303-794-2683) for more information on joining one of these groups.
Softball League
PLAY BALL!
Softball season! Our Men’s Softball team plays ball three seasons. We are always looking for the “boys of summer”, even in the winter! If you think grass on your knees and the sun in your eyes sounds like fun then this is the team for you. We play in a D-Rec league on Sunday afternoons at Cornerstone Park, corner of Belleview and Windermere, in Littleton. The spring season runs from the beginning of April until mid-May; summer will begin the first of June and go until mid-Aug; and the fall season is Sept-Oct. There are weekly games, plus a playoff. This is a great opportunity to get some exercise and get to know a few other guys in the church. There are no tryouts, and all men 18 and over are welcome to play. So dust off your cleats, oil your glove, and contact John Parisi.
Spring Softball
Registration is now underway for our Men’s Spring Softball league. It is a six game season with a playoff tournament. Contact John Parisi, 303-707-1664, for information.
St. Andrew Annual Camping Trip
Watch here for Summer 2012 Camping Trip dates.
Nordic Explorers
We are gearing up for another fun ski season. Our group is a fun loving bunch that enjoys being outside in God’s great creation to cross-country ski or snowshoe. We ski every other Saturday starting January 7, 2012 (except Washington’s holiday weekend) for day outings to the mountains. We would love to have you join us for a fun-filled day of skiing and fellowship on and off the trail. Some skiing experience is necessary, but snowshoers of all levels are welcome. Contact-Dottie Tarvestad, 303-796-8267.
Men's Snowhounds
Meet men with similar interests in the white outdoors of winter by joining a men’s snowriding group. Weekly trips are organized to various nearby ski areas with travel arranged via carpooling or shuttle bus. Trips are mostly on Saturdays and are coordinated to include lunch, and usually dinner on the way back. Contact John Parisi through the church office (303-794-2683).
