Documents That Speak for You: Wills, Trusts, and Living Wills

Sunday, November 8 | 11:30 am | Chapel
If you couldn’t speak for yourself tomorrow, would your wishes be honored? Join the Episcopal Health Ministry for a presentation on the vital documents everyone should have—regardless of age. Leslie Dubin, MSW, a clinical social worker for the University of Michigan Hospital’s Geriatric Inpatient Consultation Team, returns to cover healthcare-specific issues like living wills. Wills, Trusts and Estates attorney Leah Tremonti of Tremonti Law PLLC, will discuss legal affairs including wills and trusts. Learn from Leslie and Leah about the importance of these end-of-life documents, the peace of mind they provide, and how to get started.

Homelessness in Our Community

Tuesday, November 10 | 6pm Light Supper, 6:30 pm Program | Parish Hall
This fall, our Outreach and Social Justice Ministry is sponsoring programs on homelessness in Washtenaw County. This will be an opportunity to learn from people doing this work every day, reflect on the root causes of homelessness, and begin to discern together whether there’s something St. Andrew’s is called to contribute. On Tuesday, November 10, Katie Hoener, the program administrator of Washtenaw County Community Mental Health will speak about the connections between mental health and homelessness. We hope you will join us for these programs as we learn about the crisis of homelessness and begin to discern how St. Andrew’s might respond. If you haven't already, please RSVP to Fr. Paul at pfrolick@standrewsaa.org so we can plan for food.

We’d like to formally recognize and welcome new members to St. Andrew’s during worship on Sunday, November 15.

Centering Prayer & Psalms

Music Notes

Hymn 450: All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name

This is easily one of the favorite hymns of the English-speaking world. Edward Perronet, the text’s major author, came from a Hugenot family who had fled France to England forty years before his birth. Perronet continued his strict, pious heritage: he left the Church of England to join the Wesleys, but broke with them. Perronet ended his career in an Independent chapel in Canterbury, too idiosyncratic to work with others for long. His words draw deeply on Scripture and ascend the heights of worship, so the prickly Perronet has found a universal fellowship in his hymn. - Donna Wessel Walker

Restore in us O God

Craig Phillips (b. 1961) served All Saints Episcopal Church in Beverly Hills, California, as Associate Director and then Director of Music from 1988 to 2026.  - Dennis Powers
