Wonder With Us

Shore to Shore High Youth Group

Shore to Shore is a two year experiential education and youth leadership program serving racially, culturally, and socioeconomically diverse high-school students from Massachusetts in sustained partnership with youth peers in South Africa. The Massachusetts cohort includes students from public and private high schools and intentionally connects youth from first-generation immigrant families, historically marginalized communities, and more socioeconomically privileged backgrounds who rarely have opportunities to learn alongside one another in structured, supportive environments.

THANK YOU to all who joined us on Sunday, March 1, 2026 for the Parish Annual Meeting. View our Annual Report.
Invite In Jesus
St. Andrews would like the congregation to invite Jesus into their lives and into their homes. Each week Jesus will go home with a parishioner. Show Jesus around your home. Spend time praying with Jesus. Take Jesus on your errands, on a walk in the woods or to your sports outings. After your week with Jesus, you should arrive to church early (9am) and find a hiding spot for Jesus. The next parishioner who is able to find Jesus gets to take him home.
Also, please share pictures or stories of your time with Jesus with the office ([email protected]). We want to know about the adventures you have with Christ!
Adventures this past week - Jesus went to South Shore Hospital, Worcester (All Saints), and to the Episcopal City Mission Annual meeting in Worcester. Very Rev. Doug Fisher received the Barbara C. Harris award for leadership and joyfully held Jesus. Jesus is also with statues of St. Francis in anticipation of last Sunday's Blessing of the Animals. He also went to Home Depot! What a full week! Where will he go next? View the Gallery
