Building Community and Growing Faith!
Saint Andrews Church was established in 1902 as a mission church by St.Paul's Episcopal Church in Akron. At first, services were held in rented locations then the church was constructed in 1915 on West Hopocan Avenue and Fifth Avenue. Through the years, the church has grown and expanded its facilities. Saint Andrews has a welcoming and vibrant community of faith that exhibits God's love through community service, fellowship gatherings, and outreach programs.
