Upcoming Events

Ann Arbor Pride: Volunteers Needed

The Ann Arbor Episcopal churches will have a table at Ann Arbor Pride on Saturday, August 3. We are looking for volunteers to help staff the table and to assist with setting up and clean up. The event is downtown Ann Arbor. We’ll start setting up around 10:00 am and staff the table from noon to 6:00 pm, at which point we’ll start cleaning up. Each volunteer shift will last about two hours. There’s no training or experience required; we’ll have flyers with information about the churches in the area to hand out, and otherwise this is an opportunity to talk to people in the community about the Episcopal church. To sign up, or if you have any questions, please contact Ian McCaul.

St. Andrew’s Gets Outside

We’re going for a walk, and we would like you to join us! Our next outing will be at 9:00 am on Saturday, August 3 at the Gallup Park Boat Launch (3310 Geddes Road - it is the parking lot EAST of Huron Parkway), and we will meet next to the big goose statue. Contact Sarah Baird for more information.

Save the Date: Ice Cream Social

Join us for ice cream after the 10:00 am service on Sunday, August 4!

Prayer Vigil in Anxious Times:

Tuesday, August 6 at 6:00 pm in the Chapel. According to a poll by the American Psychiatric Association, nearly three-quarters (73%) of respondents say they are feeling anxious about the election. We will gather in the Chapel on Tuesday, August 6th at 6 pm to pray, with words and with silence, for peace, understanding, and healing of the divisions in our country. Please join us.

Music Notes

Hymn 321: My God, thy table now is spread

The Gospel lesson this morning includes the feeding of the 5,000, with its connections to the Eucharist; indeed, the third verse mentions the “countless numbers” who are fed on Christ’s bread. The four verses we sing are compiled from the works of two famous 18th-century hymn writers, Philip Doddridge and Isaac Watts. Doddridge was a theologian; Watts wrote thousands of hymns, having set out as a young man to brighten the singing in church. Edward Miller adapted a folk tune in 1790, and named the tune Rockingham, but it’s unclear why; it’s the name of a small Northamptonshire village. - Donna Wessel Walker
