In 1947, Rev. H.B. Duling, Sr. organized St. Andrew in College Park, Georgia,
with 21 charter members. At that time meetings were held at Powell and
Riverdale Road, where a Sunday school was started that soon had 35 people
attending. A new building was constructed at 4619 Bostwick Drive.
It opened its doors to the community on Easter morning 1949. Due to
rapid growth, a second building was completed for Sunday school and Boy Scout
meetings. In 1952, the church built a parsonage at 2245 Shancey Lance.
Due to airport expansion in the 1960’s the church was relocated to 2495 Burdett
Road. In 1990, the congregation of St. Andrew, with the approval of
the Bishop, voted to close its doors. The Church property was then transferred
to the District Trustees to be used for Church Development.
