“For the last few years, we have provided a weeks’ supply of groceries, including turkeys or hams, for 75 families during Thanksgiving and Christmas,” he said. “We have also provided Christmas gifts to their 200 children.”

St. Andrew United Methodist Church is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2012. Founded in April 1962 by a small group of dedicated Methodists who originally met at Blackwell School, St. Andrew United Methodist Church takes pride in being a family of caring, nurturing followers of Jesus Christ who welcome all those seeking to know and grow in God’s service.
Church founders chose the name St. Andrew because the apostle Andrew is considered a “do-er,” doing the work of the Lord. The first sanctuary, completed in 1964, is now our Community Room. Today, our church family has grown to include more than 350 families dedicated to doing the work of the Lord. Church members accomplish this through various ministries in which we hope all members of our congregation will become involved.
St. Andrew UMC’s congregation includes residents of Marietta, Kennesaw, and other communities in northern Cobb County, as well as residents of Woodstock, Towne Lake, and other communities in southern Cherokee County.
