St. Andrew’s Cares
As COVID-19 affected McCall, St. Andrew’s parishioners rallied to aid those hit hardest. Their initiative raised over $18,000, generously contributed by both parishioners and the wider community. Since March 2020, these funds have been distributed through esteemed local partners like Heartland Hunger (Food Bank), Shepherd’s Home, the Children’s Fund, McCall Public Schools, and Rise 2 Thrive. This incredible outpouring of support embodies our commitment to uplift and assist those facing adversity. St. Andrew’s remains steadfast in providing aid to our community during these challenging times, standing together in solidarity and care.
Monetary donations are always welcome and can be directed to St. Andrew’s Care Fund, Box 1045, McCall 83638.

They generously volunteer their time and expertise to visit patients at St. Luke’s Hospital in McCall, extending a comforting presence and spiritual companionship during their hospital stay.
