Church School, Festive Music, & a Picnic!

Our welcome-back Sunday is exuberant. Church School resumes during the 10:30 am service, the choir has some festive hymns for us, and to top it all off, the ice cream and hot dog trucks roll up after the service! Bring your own blankets if you want (chairs and tables will be set up in the churchyard, too). Games for the kids will be set out, as well. Can't wait to see everyone!

Are You a Pledging Member of St. James?

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 $3,500.00. By the numbers, it costs $6,000.00 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!
