Clothe-A-Child

St. Andrew the Apostle Parish and School are happy to once again collect monetary donations for the Archdiocesan CCSCC’s Clothe-A-Child Campaign which provides newly purchased clothes for underprivileged children in the New Orleans area. These children are identified through the office of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New Orleans. We welcome any monetary donations at our table set up outside of the church on the weekends of October 11th/12th and October 25th/26th after each Mass and/or you can drop off your donation to the parish office by Tuesday, October 28th. We will also have a signup for anyone interested in joining the CCSCC in using these funds to shop for the children on November 5th. We are truly grateful for your generosity!

Troops of St. George Information

Posted on January 10th, 2022 By

Troops of St George

St Andrew the Apostle Church is starting a new ministry, the Troops of St George, the Catholic version of the Boy Scouts. The Troops of St George is designed for boys in the 1st Grade through senior year in high school. This is a Catholic ministry for young men and their dads looking for a life of adventure coupled with virtue. It uses the outdoors as a game with a purpose. The game – to go camping, hiking, canoeing, fishing, and other adventures; to learn how to cook, tie knots, first aid, and other life skills. The purpose is to grow one’s faith, deepen one’s relationship with Christ, nurture the father/son relationship, build strong virtuous leaders, and to teach citizenship.

If you and your son would like to join us on many different adventures, please contact the parish office at 504-393-2334.
