The ACW or Anglican Christian Women:

The women of St. Andrew’s have been very active over the years with the A.C.W.

We meet the second Tuesday of every month at 1:30 p.m. in the church hall. Some of our activities are yearly events. For example, every July 1, we have Lunch on the Lawn, a highly anticipated event, and twice a year, we host a bridge luncheon. On occasion, we have a guest speaker.

Other events that we participate in are catering for funerals and involvement in the World Day of Prayer. Our corresponding secretary sends out cards to members of our congregation who are celebrating or grieving and also to those that have moved away, to remind them of their time at St. Andrew’s.

We are very grateful to the women of our congregation for their generosity, like stocking the cupboard or helping to prepare sandwiches. They are always ready to step in and supply what is required. At the end of the year, surplus funds are given to a number of needy groups in our community.

ACW BRIDGE LUNCHEON

October 12, 2023

The ACW hosted its semi-annual Bridge Luncheon on Thursday, Oct 12^th, and it was a great success. The event began with the card players enjoying a wonderful lunch of sandwiches and many homemade desserts.  After lunch, the bridge games began.

Joan placed first with the top score, followed by Celia in second place.

The photos below show the players in action, taken unfortunately after some had to leave, as well as the winners. The table of desserts speaks for itself, showcasing as it does the wonderful baking abilities of our ACW.

We’re very happy to have this happy event back after the years of shutdown.
