St. Andrews in Saltaire survived the devastating 1938
hurricane and storm surge which destroyed a large percentage of the
village of Saltaire. The building's stained glass windows memorialize
early residents and leaders of the congregation. The front window depicts
Jesus by the Sea of Galilee as he calls his disciples to be "fishers of
men" (Matthew 4:19). It is the needed repair of the framework holding this
window that has rallied support for a fundraising series this summer. See
the community calendar
for dates.
Many weddings have been performed in this sanctuary and
many infants have been baptized.
Sabbath services are held throughout the season by
visiting pastors at 8:00 and 10:00am using the traditional Episcopal
liturgy. Bible Study meets one morning a week. A yearly fund-raising sale
of attic treasures and homemade baked goods, held at the Saltaire Yacht
Club, welcomes contributions and participants.
