Denton Arts & Jazz Festival April 25-27

Don't forget about the best thing that happens in Denton each year...the Arts and Jazz Festival! Three days of great food, art, music, and a good way to hang out with friends. Brandon will be there all weekend - give him a call if you want a friend to go with!

ALL YOUTH SUMMER ACTIVITIES

Look out for more fun summer activities to be announced in the next month. We'll be having all youth movie nights & pool parties. We'll take a couple of trips to baseball games and to Six Flags. And there will be a lock-in or two for the middle school students as well! 

Hello!  

There's a lot going on in the life of St. Andrew's Youth Ministry and we want to keep you informed and updated. Here's all the good stuff you need to know about CREW and element. Check it out!
