Service Times
|
Sunday by Sunday and through midweek prayers we worship God, offering praise, listening to God’s word in the Bible and exploring what it may say to our lives today. Our worship includes a mix of traditional music with organ and choir and more contemporary Christian songs led by our music group.
Our usual Sunday service times are:
Family Worship 10.30am
Evening (2nd in the month) 6.30pm (except August)
Early Communion (3rd in the month) 9.30am (except August)
In addition we hold evening services with our ecumenical sister churches at 6.30pm on the last Sunday in the month and offer special services at festival times, including Christmas and Holy Week/Easter.
For details of our worship this week click: www.standrews.cc/services.htm
We have a long tradition of nurturing children and week by week run a staffed crèche, inspiring, creative hands on children’s work and a young peoples group. We are delighted to welcome a steady flow of infants and children for baptism/blessing. St Andrew’s also proves popular for weddings.

Welcome to St Andrew’s
From our Minister
Welcome to a virtual picture of St Andrew’s, I hope that this picture will give you some insights into our life and mission and will inspire you to visit us in person - where I trust you’ll find a warm welcome - for St Andrew’s seeks to be a welcoming and inclusive community. You can find out more about us by visiting our website: www.standrews.cc
St Andrew’s is a community of 180 members, another 80 + who join us in worship from time to time and 500+ from our community who come for midweek activities and special services and occasions. The Church is situated in Roundhay, Leeds, set within a recently landscaped open and peaceful garden. We are a five minute walk from bus stops on nearby Street Lane, have a car park and are surrounded by residential streets with ample on-street charge-free parking.
Our church motto is: worshipping God, following Jesus, serving neighbour…
Having read about us virtually I hope that should you come to Roundhay you may be able to visit us and find a warm welcome. God bless you in your Christian pilgrimage through life David Pickering (Rev) Minister St Andrew’s david.pickering@standrews.cc

During the Week
|
|
Through the week St Andrew’s is a hive of activity, including a New Mum’s group, Carer/Parent Toddlers 3 times weekly (term time), Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers and a range of adult activities from faith-based Bible study to badminton, drama group (with junior section) and bridge. In addition to our outreach through our neighbourhood we seek to be good neighbours to those overseas. Our annual Appeal for Others in the run-up to Christmas regularly raises £12-14,000 which is shared between development projects in Palestine, Kenya and India.
We work closely with Churches Together in Roundhay (St Edmund's Parish Church, The Immaculate Heart of Mary Roman Catholic Church, The Religious Society of Friends and Lidgett Park Methodist Church), enjoying regular joint evening services.
