St. Andrew the Apostle Parish 6415 Northeast Antioch Road, Gladstone, MO 64119

"After being unhappy with our public school I enrolled our children at St Andrews school. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner. We are so happy that we made the mindful decision to switch schools. Mr Calcara is a fantastic leader and I know my children are in good hands."

"This is one of my favorite places to be, first for adoring our Lord also because it is just a beautiful example of what a Catholic Church should be. St. Andrew’s is such a reverent, vibrant, faith-filled, and genuine Catholic parish. I can’t give this parish enough credit for forming me into the person I am today. I have been attending here since I was born, and now I give much of my time to the music ministry. The youth group is outstanding. I can’t even begin to say how absolutely amazing the priests have been!!! All of them! They celebrate such reverent and traditional Masses, which I believe people nowadays are searching for. Please give this parish a visit! You will not be disappointed!"

"I am from Oklahoma and have family in the area. My husband and I attend St. Andrew’s every time we are in KC. (Our relatives are Baptist and do not attend here). We always feel welcomed! We love the reverence, the altar rail, the Priests and congregation! I wear a veil at home and am very comfortable at this church doing so. The children’s involvement at Mass is superb. During Lent, the fish fry is great! I’ve already made a few friends that I look forward to seeing every few months. This is what Catholic/universal truly is!"

"A beautiful, welcoming community! Everyone I have met truly cares about your soul. The youth program is outstanding. The school is a truly Catholic environment. Even the people you meet at mass are wonderful. You will always find young children at mass learning to love Jesus, and you will always find the older generation doting on these young children after mass because their presence is always welcomed! St. Andrews is a place to find community, support, friends, but most importantly- a real encounter with Jesus Christ, who is the center of it all."

"St Andrews is an amazing church filled with wonderful people. Everyone is very welcoming! There are so many opportunities for parishioners to grow in their faith. The youth programs are outstanding. My kids have been in the youth programs for over 10 years. I cant say enough wonderful things about the programs, and especially the leaders. They truly go above and beyond for all the kids. It is so great to see the large numbers of youth, especially the teens so involved in the church and in helping the younger kids grow in their faith. In these times it is so important to have positive Christian influences around our children and I am so thankful to the youth leaders of St Andrews for being that influence."
