Welcome to St. Andrew's United Reformed Church.

Sunday Services are held in church at 11.00 each week.  The children have the option of leaving for their own activities after the first 20 minutes or so. 

Sadly we have said farewell to Revd. Dawn Mather, and are currently without a minister.  However Sunday Worship continues as usual, led by both visiting ministers from Mersey Synod and island-based preachers.  Our interim moderator is Revd. Catherine McFie.

                                             *************************************

Our Church was founded in 1825, and there will be a series of events during 2025 to celebrate the 200th anniversary.  

The first of these was a wonderful service of celebration on Sunday March 16th, led by Theunis Bassage and Richard Karran.

It was a great pleasure to welcome Victoria James from URC Church House in London, Revd Geoff Felton, the Moderator of Mersey Synod, and Her Worship Mrs Natalie Byron-Teare, Mayor of Douglas, along with our Interim Moderator Revd. Catherine McFie, and others who have been, or are currently, members of our preaching team, and our regular guest preachers.

So many people helped make our service, and the lunch that followed, such a wonderful occasion - apologies for not listing them all by name. 

For those unable to join us - or who simply want to go back and enjoy it again - this video of the whole service was made for us by Jon Tummon - to whom, much thanks.

We are part of the Warm Spaces Initiative.  The Tuesday group is a friendly opportunity for both St. Andrew's folk and others, to get together. We now meet twice a month on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month.  We sit and chat, some people bring their knitting, crochet or similar, there are adult colouring books if you want to be quietly creative, books to borrow, and tea, coffee, biscuits and occasional home-baking!  We do have some toys for small children, and we can often also provide wool for knitters/crocheters.

We have  a St Andrew's Facebook page which is regularly updated.  You do not need to have ae. Facebook account to access it.

If you're struggling or need a friendly ear to chat to on the phone, we're here to help; feel free to contact your Elder.
