Staff Transitions
Parish Administrator
We'd like to thank Kathy McPherson for her more than 18 years of faithful service to St. Andrew's and the Episcopal Diocese of Michigan. Her last day as our official Parish Administrator was March 31, 2023. There are not enough adjectives to describe everything she has brought to the position and in turn, done for the parish. We will miss her but wish her all the best in her retirement!

After 8 years, we will say goodbye to Kim Tucker-Gray at the end of April. We thank her for her knowledge and service to the parish and look forward to hearing about her next great adventure!
