Holy Week Activities

We had a great time at St. James during Holy Week this year.

It all began with the waving of palm branches and the singing of Hosannas. It included a footwashing service on Maundy Thursday and a Tenebrae service on Good Friday. Then, we had a weekend of celebrating Christ's resurrection, beginning with an Easter Egg Party and Egg Hunt. Alleluia! Christ is risen!

Blood Drive in honor of Michael Nevitt

The Red Bank Community Blood Drive will be held here at St. James on Monday, April 25, from 3-8PM in the fellowship hall. Come and give blood in honor of Michael Nevitt, who is a member of our church. Every 2 seconds, someone in the world is receiving a blood transfusion. Help save a life today!

Easter Sunrise Service and Breakfast

Each year the Red Bank Community has a Easter Sunrise Service and Breakfast. Three churches in the area, St. James Lutheran Church, Red Bank Baptist Church, and Red Bank United Methodist Church, alternate the service and the breakfast. Join us this year at Red Bank United Methodist Church. The service begins at 6:30 AM. Breakfast will be served after worship. We hope to see you there!

Maundy Thursday and Good Friday

Please join us this Thursday, April 21 at 7PM for our Maundy Thursday Service which will have Holy Communion and Foot Washing. For Good Friday, Friday, April 22 at 7PM we will have a Solemn Service. All are welcome to worship with us!

Palm Sunday

Our worship service begins on the front steps of the church this Palm Sunday, April 17. After worship, everyone is invited to our stewardship fair, where all committees and auxiliaries at St. James will host display tables on our front lawn for every member to walk by and see. We’ll also enjoy some delicious Hudson’s BBQ for lunch in our fellowship hall. Please join us for this memorable service, and to get to know the opportunities here for you to participate in growth and fellowship at St. James!

Zumba Fitness at St. James

Zumba classes are starting at St. James on Wednesday, April 27 @ 8PM, and on Friday, April 29 @ 7PM. Cost is $5 per person per class, but the more people who join our class, the more our individual cost goes down! Lynn Madden will be our instructor for this fun and energetic class!

Calling Cards for Soldiers

During the month of March, the Social Ministry Committee collected over $200.00 from our congregation to provide calling cards for a group of soldiers from Batesburg, SC, who are stationed in Afghanistan. The calling cards have been purchased and mailed. Thanks to all who donated to such a worthy cause!
