Welcome . . .

Since 1923, St. James Episcopal Church has been feeding and tending to our neighbors, especially the most vulnerable among them, in many different ways. We have been performing mercy related activities to satisfy immediate needs – providing meals and groceries and assistance with clothing, shelter, & transportation. We have also been active in justice related activities – helping to find permanent solutions to the underlying problems that create such needs. 

Get ready for a fun-filled, community-building experience at the 6th Annual St. James Neighbor Day Celebration as we shine the light on this important work! This year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever before, with three exciting components:  

  • First up, we will have an engaging online auction that will feature amazing gift cards and merchandise donated by local businesses. Sun, Sep 15, 2024 – Sat, Oct 5, 2024.
  • Next, we will have a delightful outdoor concert that will have you tapping your toes and singing along to some of your favorite tunes. Bring your family and friends and enjoy an evening of music under the stars!  Tue, Oct 1, 2024 @ 6 pm.
  • And last but not least, we are thrilled to announce the newest addition to our celebration – the St. James Pumpkin Patch! Get your cameras ready for some adorable photo ops and pick out the perfect pumpkin to take home.  Tue, Oct  1, 2024Tue, Oct  29, 2024
