We at St. Andrew's welcome you to our community
and
especially to our church home.
 

You are invited to join with us in our regular Sunday morning worship service at 10:30 a.m. or at any of our special events held throughout the year.

Guests of many denominations are comfortable worshiping with us and many choose us as their home away from home.

Our mailing list includes many families from outside the area that keep in touch with St. Andrew's all year round and our membership list includes many who arrived as guests and chose Parry Sound and area as their new home.
