Come make an evening of it! Take in some organ music in the Church, then check out our "ghosts" in the graveyard, walk through the Senior Youth's haunted house, and finish off with some candy and games in the Great Hall. It's going to be a fun night, with something for everyone!

Come hear Victoria Shields and fellow organist (from Bronxville) Caitlyn Dowling keep us on the edge of our seats with fun Halloween-themed music on the organ!

All are welcome to help us pack 300+ grocery bags for the food insecure in the neighborhood of our partner parish, St. James Episcopal Church in Fordham. To be added to the email distribution list for this ministry (where you'll receive reminders and occasional updates), please send a brief email to the office: office@stjamesscarsdale.org with "St. James Fordham" as the subject line.

All Saints' Sunday is November 3, and at 5 pm that day we'll be hosting an Anglican Choral Evensong to mark the occasion and remember our deceased loved ones. The necrology--list of the dead--will be printed in the bulletin for morning services (9 & 10:30), and read aloud at the Choral Evensong (5 pm). Add your loved ones' names to our list. Anyone who has died in the past year at St. James will automatically be added.

Join the Choir of St. James for the traditional Anglican service of Evensong as we remember the saints that have gone on before us.  The contemplative and uplifting service of Evensong is unique to the Anglican musical tradition. The choir sings prayers on behalf of the congregation so the congregation may meditate and pray in this intimate and rejuvinating service. Following will be a festive reception for all to gather and celebrate each other and those who have joined the company of angels. 

Free-will offering

In last Sunday's sermon, Mother Eliza reminded us of the importance of servant leadership by way of the negative example of James and John, who ask Jesus for a privilege place above their fellow disciples.

Do you appreciate text reminders from St. James? Starting this week, you'll need to intentionally opt-in to receive them. This is especially important for families and kids who depend on text reminders from us. Here's what that text will look like--and Mo. Storm just received hers today (Thurs) at 12:15 pm, so check your messages!

Church of St James the Less is verifying you want to receive reminders & alerts from Breeze ChMS. Reply YES to opt-in, STOP to cancel. Msg&data rates may apply. Unless you reply YES to this message you will no longer receive messages from Breeze ChMS on behalf of Church of St James the Less.

It's easy to get involved, and we're always looking for more volunteer help! Click the links, add your name, and you'll automatically be added to the email distribution group for that ministry. You can also sign up through our phone app any time. We really do run on volunteer labor. Thank you!

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!
