Celebrate Pentecost!!!
Acts 2:1-4
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance.
We hope that you are doing well and look forward to seeing you this coming Sunday to celebrate Pentecost and for a very special announcement. Services will be held outside at 9:00am and 10:00am with a warm and sunny forecast.
Refreshments will be available following the 10:00am service.
We encourage you to attend in person if you are comfortable and able to do so. Whether you will be attending in-person or virtually please remember to wear something red! Please reach out to the church office at (908) 464-4875 or email us at wardens@standrewschurch.com if you have any questions or require assistance getting to the church.

Further Information on Worship at St. Andrew's in the Time of Pandemic
The Diocese has approved our plan to worship in the church nave. Presently, we are limited to 25 family units in the nave, unless we use the narthex as overflow space. Whether indoor or out, service through the Summer is at 9 am starting May 30, 2021. Also, we will continue to stream our services via Facebook and Zoom. If you cannot attend, or do not feel safe, I will make arrangements to bring Communion to you at home or for you to receive private Communion here at church. We are following all CDC, State, and Diocesan guidelines to keep all of us safe. Please contact the parish office or Fr. Daniel to schedule a time.
