RECTOR SEARCH
St. Andrew’s by-the-Sea is seeking a Christ-filled, dynamic rector to lead our creative, multi-age congregation!

We deeply desire a leader who can teach us how to deepen our walk with Christ through reflective preaching–connecting our contemporary lives with the insight of Jesus’ wisdom. We hope for a collaborative rector who will model the complex reality of living in joy AND grief in a fractured world, inspiring current members as well as newcomers to see the church as a place of healing, connection and growth.

Please join us in praying for our community and potential candidates as we discern our path forward!

Loving God, may you bless these endings and beginnings 🩷

🩷On Sunday we shared our appreciation for our friend, family minister, and office admin, Kari! It is no surprise that her gifts in teaching and with children are leading her into a full-time role as a classroom teacher. We have been beyond blessed by her many years of service to St. Andrew’s and are grateful she and her beloved family will continue to be a part of our church family. Kari— your tender and generous spirit have made every family and child feel welcome in our space. Your message that “you matter” has been sewn into the fabric of every parishioner’s heart. And we will continue to make St. Andrew’s a place where both crying AND singing are welcome— as you always have. Thank you, Generous God, for Kari! 🩷
