Capital Campaign Weekly UpdateWith a Note from the Rector, Video and Co-Chair's Message, Our Weekly Progress, and More Hello Parishioners! When we set out to do a capital campaign, we felt that the singlemost important thing it could accomplish--even more than raising money to repair our properties--was to build community. Having sat down now with dozens of parishioners, sometimes at church, oftentimes in your homes, and almost always alongside another campaign visitor, this aspect of our work has been incredibly rewarding.

Read or Listen to a Sermon"In Praise of the Resilience of Young Women" Did you know? Mo. Storm and Mo. Eliza preach a short, quickly-prepared homily every Wednesday at the 9:30 am Eucharist (and did you know we have a mid-week Eucharist, every week?). Frequently these aren't even written down, but this week's saint is too important *not* to be lifted up: Kateri of Tekawitha, a young Native American woman who lived 400 years ago and died very young. This short homily is called "In Praise of the Resilience of Young Women." For more infomation visit: http://stjamesscarsdale.org/media/2024-04-17-in-praise-of-the-resilience-of-young-women

Are You a Pledging Member of St. James?
We are so thankful for each and every pledge made to St. James. Ongoing financial contributions from parishioners are how Episcopal churches operate. If you take advantage of anything in the church--worship services, classes for kids and adults, outreach programs, fellowship, anything at all--please make a pledge to help us sustain these programs. The annual average pledge at St. James is approx $3500.00. By the numbers, it costs $6000.00 per family to do everything we do. Click the picture above to make a pledge. It's easy and secure. You'll receive a response from the office and the rector. Thank you! For more infomation visit: https://tithe.ly/give_new/www/#/tithely/give-one-time/2227516
