The Brotherhood of Saint AndrewThe Stillwater Chapter is non-active at this time. To learn more about the local order, please contact the church office. * * * The Brotherhood of Saint Andrew is an international order for men within the Anglican Community dedicated to the disciplines of prayer, study and service. The Brotherhood was formed in the 1880's in Chicago as a way to bring men and boys to Christ. It has spread around the world and today is found in all parts of the Anglican Communion. * * * The Brotherhood of Saint Andrew is named for Saint Andrew who, according to John's Gospel, after meeting Jesus, went to find his brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." Then he took Simon to Jesus. Emulating the act of Andrew, the first Brothers Andrew reached out to men in rooming houses, giving them Bibles and inviting them to come to church to hear for themselves the witness of Scripture to God's love and His Son, Jesus. They brought people to be baptized and confirmed in the church. They brought them to Christ's Kingdom. The Brotherhood grew, and became international in scope. There is no limit to this ministry, as long as the ministry is one of extending the golden thread of God's love and sharing Jesus Christ with the world. The purpose of the Brotherhood of Saint Andrew is to make Christ known to those who do not know him.
