Read or Listen to a Sunday SermonLast Sunday's Sermon: The Miracle of Hearing, a Meditation for Pentecost Read or listen to Mo. Storm's sermon for the Day of Pentecost. She points out that Pentecost is a miracle of hearing, not just of speaking, and that's a message we need more than ever. Noting how interfaith work seems to have waned since October 7, she points out that, when confronted with differences that make us uncomfortable, the best thing we can do is redouble our efforts to listen to each other and stick together.

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
