Loving our neighbors.
Meeting the real needs of people is something to which God has called us.
We’ve been called to work as a team, under Christ, transforming lives and practically meeting the needs of our neighbors.
St. Andrew United Methodist Church
Welcome home.
Outreach
Loving our neighbors.
St. Andrew outreach empowers individuals to partner with local schools and nonprofits to provide food, supplies, and make human connections with the most vulnerable in our community; while focusing on building a community of love through our words and actions.
Current opportunities
Boulder County Fire Response
Recovery efforts are underway and we need your help. As families begin to move into transitional or new living spaces, they need our help to provide kitchen basics. All items must be new. We encourage you to signup using SignUpGenius and drop off labeled items on the tables at the front of the church or at our Outreach Depot by January 25th.
If you prefer to use a contactless option, please shop our Amazon Wish List or make a direct donation to the recovery efforts for those affected by the fires.
Thank you St. Andrew for showing up and pouring love and support into our neighbors in Boulder County!
Sunday Sack Lunches
Each Sunday we partner with AfterHours Denver to provide sack lunches for those experiencing homelessness in our city. Lunches are made each Sunday morning at St. Andrew and then handed out at Civic Center Park and the Regis Safe Outdoor Space.
You can signup to help make or deliver lunches, or simply learn more below.
Just Care Backpacks
Join us in filling Just Care Backpacks with nonperishable food and other essential items. Take a backpack with you to give away when you see someone in our community in need.
Keeping Our Neighbors Warm
As the nights grow colder, we are eager to help keep those who are unsheltered warm. We are partnering with After Hours Denver, Colorado Coalition for the Homeless, St Francis Center, and the Safe Outdoor Spaces, to provide sleeping bags, beanies, and other cold weather items for those who are unsheltered.
The greatest needs we currently have are warm wool socks and beanies. You can help by shopping from our Amazon wishlist or dropping off new items at St. Andrew (Non-contact drop-off tables are located by the front entrance).
