Denomination: Lutheran Church
An inner city multicultural congregation- a classical understanding in the Lutheran tradition. Music features prominently in our worship services. We have a ministry in the Korean language and a Korean born pastor leads this ministry. Prayer services 1pm on Sundays. English language service led by our Finnish born pastor 10am on Sunday.
The worship of God is at the heart of our life together at St Andrew's. We are primarily a liturgical community in the city. We believe that God comes to us in Jesus Christ through the preaching of the word of God and administering the sacraments of Christ. The Holy Spirit creates and enlivens faith through these outward means of grace. This faith is actualised in works of life for our neighbours near and far.
In response to God coming to us in Jesus Christ, we respond with confession, adoration, praise, intercession for the world and thanksgiving. This is in response to what God has done, continues to do and promises to do for his people and for all creation. Worship is an expression of all we believe in and do, and it expresses our devotion and glorifies God’s holy name. In worship, we encounter God in Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit as we hear the word of God.
Our liturgy at St Andrew's is firmly anchored in the Lutheran Church, which has its roots in the western catholic tradition.
