Picture
St Andrew’s Church supports six different Missions (organisations with Christian/humanitarian aims), ranging from local concerns to international agencies. 
Our main focus is on:
  • Andrew House – a supported housing scheme here in Clevedon for men recovering from drug and alcohol addiction, helping them to move on to independent living.
  • St Anthony’s Nursery School – a small school in Malawi where young children are given a good start in education.
  • Wycliffe Bible Translators – an international organisation seeking to make the Bible available to everyone in their heart language.
We also support:
  • Clevedon YMCA – our local YMCA providing activities and support for the young people of our community.
  • CPAS Falcon Holidays – holidays for young people from difficult circumstances, within an atmosphere of Christian care (run by the Church Pastoral Aid Society).
  • The Mothers’ Union – a worldwide Christian organisation with particular care for family life and for the issues facing women in developing countries.
 
Prayer support
The church prays regularly for all these missions, with information about one mission per week in our church Parish Prayer bulletin.
We also hear more about them and about their prayer needs through the monthly “Mission Matters” news sheet (which can be found by opening the "NOTICE BOARD" from the menu on the left of the website homepage) and at certain Sunday services and events during the course of the year. 
 
Financial support
A tithe (10%) of our church income is divided among the mission agencies (a quarter to each of the three main missions with the remainder divided between the others and occasional additional charities).
A variety of fundraising events are also held.
