About our church:
St. Andrew's, located at 44 Main Street in Hagersville since 1880, has a long tradition of community involvement through volunteer outreach to the hospital, scouting and guiding, shared service with other congregations, and participation in Remembrance Day events. Our Sunday worship is fairly traditional and Bible based, with a focus on God's grace and a welcoming outreach to people of all ages seeking to share the Gospel message of good news for all people. Sunday mornings we offer a nursery and Sunday school and, through the fall months, we have an evening Bible study open to all.
History of our church:
St. Andrew's was founded in 1880 and the church building at 44 Main Street was completed in October, 1883. Twenty-one ministers have served at St. Andrew's, supported by lively congregations, thoughtful lay leadership, and wonderful musicians all seeking to reach out to the community beyond the church walls and welcome everyone to come and join in praise and worship.
From Rev. Robert Dawson:
After growing up on a farm and attending rural schools, I graduated from high school in Woodstock, Ontario, and had a career in business which took me to some large Ontario cities. Feeling a call to ministry, I returned to school full time and graduated from Knox College, University of Toronto, in 1997, serving a church in Burlington, Ontario for 13.5 years prior to taking up ministry in Hagersville in 2011.
I truly enjoy spending time with people, and sharing worship with all ages. My wife, Linda and I have two sons, one daughter, and a grand daughter. We live in Port Dover, and enjoy walks together on the beach, hiking and biking on the Lynne Valley Trail, travel and sightseeing, and meeting new friends. I have taken part in several international mission tours, and completed some courses for my Master of Divinity in Israel, studying Talmudic Quest and Biblical Archeology.
