Abilities Mass
Twice a year, St. Andrew celebrates an Abilities Mass, a Sunday Mass with some additions to highlight the special gifts that God gives to us in those living with “disabilities.” Each individual is wonderfully made and when our parish community comes together to worship, we become one Body in Christ.
