Worship & Music @ St. Andrew
At St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, worship is at the heart of who we are and what we do. Named for the disciple who introduced others to Jesus, we seek to help all people encounter the living Christ and discover how their unique gifts can nourish the world. We worship the Triune God—Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer—with sincerity and gratitude, offering every word, note, and prayer for God’s glory and the good of all creation.
Our worship is grounded in Scripture, shaped by the Reformed tradition, and enlivened by the voices and experiences of the whole community. We gather to confess, give thanks, and celebrate the Lord’s Supper, where everyone who seeks Christ is welcome. Beyond Sunday mornings, we believe worship continues wherever God’s people live with love, justice, and compassion in the world.

The Krapf Organ Project
St. Andrew is home to the Krapf Organ, originally built for the University of Iowa’s Clapp Hall. When the 2008 flood destroyed the building, the university donated the instrument to St. Andrew, ensuring its music would continue to inspire the community.
