Dear Friend,
Lollapalooza is in town, a sure sign that we're at the end of July. Where did the month go? It seems like summer is so short, and goes by so quickly. As we zoom through the summer, though, I hope you can take a moment to think about the stories that we hear at church during these weeks. As Cardinal Cupich notes, we hear stories about the Kingdom in our midst, acts of kindness and compassion expressed by everyday people. These are a true expression of ourselves and our faith, and we can see them all around us during these weeks of summer.

Become a Minister of Care
After being put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic, Saint Andrew Parish is recommissioning its Ministry of Care team and looking for volunteers. Help serve older parishioners who cannot leave to come to church by bringing them Holy Communion and providing short communion services. In particular, we are looking for volunteers who can help bring Communion to the residents of Artis on Ashland Avenue every other Thursday. Contact Deacon Mark to express interest in volunteering for this important ministry by emailing him at Mark@standrew.org
Fall Fling - Save the Date
Save the date for the 2022 Fall Fling on Saturday, September 24, 2022. The event will include our annual golf outing at Sydney Marovitz Golf Course in the afternoon followed by a dinner party and live entertainment for everyone. Make plans to join us for the fun and festivity when everyone is back in to the neighborhood grove.
Serve as a Coach!
Saint Andrew School's athletic teams succeed because of the numerous coaches who step forward and give of their times so that young people can know the spirit and skill of strong athletics. Start serving as a coach by contacting Matt Pope at matthewpope@gosaintandrew.com. We are currently in need of coaches for the flag football season which competes this Fall.
For your convenience, we've included a copy of the Sunday bulletin below.
Join us for Mass in person at 4:00pm on Saturdays and 9:00am and 11:00am on Sundays. If for any reason you can not attend in person, please watch our live stream of the Sunday 9:00am Mass in real time, or as a recording throughout the day.
During the summer months, Saint Andrew will suspend the weekly Saint Andrew Minute.
