St. James — A Place to Feed and Be Fed

We are an affirming community, and we welcome you, no matter who you are, to come and be fed at the communion table and the fellowship table. Online or in person, we look forward to walking the path of faith with you.

BIBLE STUDY - Wednesdays at Noon - If you are interested in the Sunday morning discussions as we work our way though the book of Genesis, you can join us on Wednesdays at noon to go a little deeper. We start with a chance to catch up with each other’s lives and then move on to ask more questions about how we find the text meaningful for our lives. Meet us on zoom here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82927230721
