Outreach
We're glad you're here
Together, we worship joyfully, server generously, love unconditionally, and spread God's grace to all.
“The Christian shoemaker does his duty not by putting little crosses on the shoes, but by making good shoes.” – Martin Luther
Christ’s love, active in service to others, also takes place through Saint Andrew on the local, national, and global level. This happens through regular benevolent gifts to organizations that do good work and extends the mission of the gospel. This also happens by organizing and coordinating people to serve and contribute in ways that best suit the gifts God has given to them.
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Al-anon, Alateen
On Monday nights at 7 pm, Saint Andrew is open to the work of AA and provides a safe and comfortable place to meet, share, and find community.

Saint Andrew Food Pantry
Available to community members and church members alike, the food pantry serves people monthly on an as needed basis. The Social Ministry team “shops” the pantry on your behalf to create meals, complete with produce and perishable items. To receive a “food basket,” please call Saint Andrew. Members contribute food and financial donations to support the effort of our in-house Saint Andrew food pantry.
Quilting
Members gather weekly to sew quilts and make school bags for a variety of local organizations and for Lutheran World Relief. The quilters are always looking for donations of extra fabric and supplies to help with their efforts.
Community Dinner and Good Shepherd Shelter
Community Dinner – On the third Sunday of several months during the year, members of Saint Andrew provide a meal free of charge for members of the community in partnership with other congregations in downtown Wausau. Members prepare, serve, and clean up after the meal.
Wausau Area Shelters – Trained volunteers are part of a Saint Andrew team that will support the work by helping to check in homeless individuals with shelter and nourishment.
Lent Soup and Sandwich
In the season of Lent, the community gathers in fellowship around bowls of soup prepared at Saint Andrew. A portion of the free will donation will support the work of local organizations decided annually. Members can participate by making soup, serving the meal, and cleaning up.
