 n words fail\, music speaks\,’ and this conflict in Ukraine has us all spe
 echless\,” said Taylor Davis\, Director of Music and Worship Arts\, St. An
 drew UMC. “My involuntary response\, as director of music\, is to gather m
 usician friends and create unity and peace through art. Individually\, we
  can’t change the world\, but music can help change the molecules in the r
 oom\, which can change hearts and minds across lines of division.” \nTicke

 nd sisters of Ukraine\,” said Rev. Arthur Jones\, St. Andrew UMC. “This is

  \n# # # \n St. Andrew United Methodist Church  began in 1986 in the spiri
 t of its namesake\, a disciple of Jesus. The life of the Apostle Andrew em
 bodies the church's mission\, which is to invite the Christian-ish and the
  unchurched to become passionate servants of Christ. The congregation of S
 t. Andrew follows Jesus\, lives in relationship\, serves others\, and take
 s risks in faith. Worship includes four services each weekend on a 21.2-ac
 re campus at the corner of Plano Parkway and Mira Vista in Plano\, Texas\,
  where more than 2\,000 people gather each weekend. Recent renovation allo
 ws the Sanctuary to host worship in both Traditional style\, with the clas
 sic pipe organ\, and Contemporary style\, with a new LED center screen and
  lighting technology. Small groups and Bible studies gather on campus and
  throughout the region every day of the week. Mission opportunities serve
  our local area\, neighboring regions\, and global communities. The church
  has been repeatedly selected as a "Best Place to Worship in Plano” by the
  readers of the Plano Star Courier. St. Andrew United Methodist Church is
