Statue of St. Andrew |
Millennium Cross |
Following the closure of the Royal Caledonian School, Bushey, Hertfordshire in the 1990s, a statue of St. Andrew, which had been at that school, was donated to the church. A new marble base was acquired for the statue, around 2003 or 2004, and following that the statue was erected just outside the front of church, to the south of the porch.  Icon of St Andrew In 2006 the church was listed by Rushmoor Borough Council. In August 2010 departing minister Rev Danny Connolly gave an icon of St Andrew to “all at St Andrew’s”. On Sunday 26th June 2011, a lectern for the communion table, made from oak, was presented to the church by John McBryer’s widow Mac and by Ian Youngson’s three children, Janet, Mairi and Sandy, in memory of Ian and John. Both Ian and John had attended the church for many years, both died a few weeks apart in July 2010. The minister Rev. Jim Aitchison formally accepted the gift with the words: "On behalf of this congregation I gratefully accept this memorial gift. In the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ I dedicate this Communion Table Lectern to the glory of God and in memory of His servants John McBryer and Ian Youngson and declare it to be set apart for use in this place. In the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." |
