In their own words...
"As a first generation Latin American, it was different coming here, but I soon realized that I could just be me. St. Andrews is a school for people who like small classes and a close community."
- Anthony Fernandez, Class of '10

Campus Ministry & Service

The College receives assistance from local clergy to provide spiritual guidance and support to students and other members of the campus community.  Small group Bible study and several worship services occur throughout the semester on campus.  Assistance is available to students of all faiths who seek places of worship in the area.  Students, faculty and staff may participate in various community service projects at faith-related organizations.  The St. Andrews Mission Statement emphasizes the College’s role in educating “its students to be knowledgeable and imaginative servant-leaders” who are prepared to lead and serve in the world. To that end, there are many opportunities available at St. Andrews for students who want to participate in service-learning as a part of their courses, as volunteers at local nonprofit organizations, and as members of domestic and international Alternative Spring Break Service trips.

MLK Day of Service

 

Students volunteer for the MLK Day of Service at Habitat for Humanity and Washington Park Elementary School, January 18, 2010.

A new tradition at St. Andrews, the Martin Luther King Day of Service offers a one day opportunity for all students, faculty, and staff to volunteer in the community and on campus.  Classes and team practices are canceled that day so that everyone can participate.  After volunteering, participants reflect on their experiences. Lunch is provided and all volunteers receive a free T-shirt.  We hope to have an ever-increasing number of members of the St. Andrews community to devote their time to the Day of Service. 

Alternative Spring Break

 

Students, faculty, and staff enjoy volunteering and taking a scenic trip down a river near Atlanta.

Alternative Fall Break and Spring Break trips provide an opportunity for students to further serve different regions of the country and the world.  Past locations have included trips regionally to Atlanta, Georgia as well as internationally to the Dominican Republic.
