Spiritual Life

Nurturing the Spirit at St. 安德鲁的

As an Episcopal school, St. 安德鲁的 grounds our spiritual life in the fundamental premise that every human being is created in the image of God, inherently dignified and worthy of respect. We are an inclusive, 慷慨的, and hospitable community that encourages questions and doubts every bit as much as faith. We provide a safe space in which students can find meaning, claim their own spiritual identities, and explore their beliefs with humility and openness.

教堂

教堂 is central to our common life. 一周一次, we set aside time in the midst of a full and busy schedule to pause, 祈祷, center ourselves, and contemplate what it means to be beloved children of God. Because developmental needs change as children grow, students and teachers gather by division for age-appropriate stories, 歌曲, 祈祷, and 教堂 Talks. Our worship at every level reflects the diverse beliefs and evolving passions of our community.

Pastoral Care

St. 安德鲁的 employs two full-time Chaplains who are ordained clergy in the Episcopal Church. Our Chaplains provide spiritual and emotional support to students and families of all faith traditions, in times of both joy and sorrow.

    • 牧师. James Isaacs, Chaplain to the Middle and 上学校s

    • 牧师. Sally Slater, Chaplain to the 较低的学校
