About Us
A Place Called Love
St. Andrew Anglican is a group of believers in the small but growing farm community of Alliston, just south of Barrie and an hour north of Toronto. The church was established 140 years ago and since then we have been serving the community, living and growing together in faith.
Together we share in the ministry of Jesus Christ as living testaments to the love of God. Young and old, newcomers and old timers, new Christians and not so new... we are all seeking to serve God and one another. It's an exciting journey of sharing the gospel message as disciples of our Lord Jesus while we serve others showing God's love and care.
Our Mission
The world has changed dramatically in the past few years. When we look at our community we see people, in growing numbers, struggling with issues of stress, grief, addiction, illness and aging. How do we reach them? How can we help them?
As disciples of Christ, the people of St. Andrew are passionately committed to serving others and extending the offer of God's love and acceptance to all people. Our desire is that each and every person who comes through our doors will encounter Christ and experience a life changing transformation.
We the family of St. Andrew, by the grace of God through Jesus Christ, are committed to being the Church in the world.
As the body of Christ empowered by the Holy Spirit, we will use our God given talents to worship, proclaim, learn, serve, reach out and welcome others as we journey together in faith.
