St. Nicholas Day Blessing




On December 6, we invited all kids to the church to celebrate St. Nicholas Day at St. James. This included an interactive worship service especially for children. St. Nicholas, (also known as Santa Claus), even made an appearance as well. Each child came forward for a blessing, and cookies and hot chocolate were provided afterwards! 

St. James' Christmas Cantata


Come and hear our handbell ringers, Christmas choir, and instrumentalists as we present the story of Christ's birth!




Preparing for Christmas


Advent has been a busy time at St. James! In addition to our Christmas Cantata,

our St. Nicholas Service and Blessing of The Children,

and our Christmas Decoration Giveaway to those in need in our community,

we have also spent time decorating the trees and setting up the sanctuary in preparation for Christmas Day!
All are invited to join us for worship this Christmas. Our Christmas Eve Candlelight service will be at 6:30PM, and our Christmas Morning Worship Service will be on December 25 at 9:30AM.

Occupy Church

This Sunday, December 4, at 4PM, we are holding an event open to the community called "Occupy Church." During this event, we will gather around God's Word in a service of worship to pray for God to guide us as disciples and as Christians of this nation. Everyone is invited: no matter your age, denomination, or political affiliation. Our service will begin outside on the front lawn (weather permitting). Come on out and occupy the church with us!
