St. Andrew's Episcopal Church is a historic church on East Main Street in Yaphank, New York.

The church was built on land formerly owned by James Huggins Weeks, who was a Yaphank resident since 1827, and a former President of the Long Island Rail Road between 1847 and 1850. [2] It was built in 1853 and was built to resemble The Old Grace Church in Massapequa. An extension on the east side of the church was added later on,[ when? ] but otherwise, it remains largely unchanged. The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
