Photograph of Saint Andrews United Methodist Church located at 522 Missouri Avenue, in Fort Worth. The cathedral-style building has many architectural aspects to it. The most prominent section is the tower, which rises above the rest of the building and is topped with a spire in the shape of a cross. Another, shorter section of the building has the same pitched roof and spire as the tower. In between these two spire-topped sections, a section of the building curves outwards.

Photograph of Saint Andrews United Methodist Church located at 522 Missouri Avenue, in Fort Worth. The cathedral-style building has many architectural aspects to it. The most prominent section is the tower, which rises above the rest of the building and is topped with a spire in the shape of a cross. Another, shorter section of the building has the same pitched roof and spire as the tower. In between these two spire-topped sections, a section of the building curves outwards. A set of stairs with a handrail down the middle leads up to an entrance on the curved wall. Four columns, one on each side, help to support the curved ceiling of the porch. The columns are square and sturdy. There are many rectangular windows on the building, and a few cathedral-style, stained glass windows as well. Three trimmed box hedges flank one side of the staircase. A sign for the church sits in its yard with short grass. The trunk of a tree takes up the right third of the photo, as it is closer to the camera.
