Angela St. Germain
Associate Pastor
Angela was born in upstate New York and raised in the Italian-American culture, where faith, family and gathering around the table are sacred gifts. Those early years shaped her love for people, community, and ministry. She has been blessed to serve in ministry for 30+ years, alongside her husband and best friend, Todd. Together they have devoted their lives to sharing the hope and truth of God’s Word.
Her family is my Joy. She is a grateful momma of three amazing daughters and grandmother of one precious grandson who captures her heart daily. In her down time, you might find me rearranging a room, hunting for treasures, being creative, or relaxing with family, likely with a cat or two on my lap.

Andrea and her husband Jeff have called Woodinville Alliance home for over a decade now, along with their three kids, Maddox, Justice, and Anabella, and Maddox’s new wife, Reece. Andrea is also a local Americana songwriter who feels the call to write, perform, and release music at the intersection of the brokenness and beauty in our stories. Her unique passion is curating spaces marked by vulnerable storytelling, deep listening, and lavish hospitality, whether in ministry or through events outside the church. When not performing music, she loves reading a great thriller, traveling, cooking, dabbling in languages, playing King and Scum with her kids, or curating a wild charcuterie grazing table for whoever shows up on a lazy Friday evening. She'd love to hear your story and connect further!
