Summer Sessions through Labor Day Weekend — Worship at 10AM

Kids Connect is moving to the summer session. All kids will gather in one classroom. Nursery will be available throughout the summer. Parents are welcome to stay — when our teen and young adult volunteers are available, you’ll have the option to head to worship. Please be sure to check in at the school entrance. Please note, all of our leaders and young adults have state clearances on file at St James.

Kids Connect classes and Nursery is never a requirement at St James, but merely an option. Children learn so much about worship through the witness of family and community worshiping together. Don’t be afraid of the little noises or distractions!


Join us for worship and a celebration! Ava DiPasquale will be affirming her baptism on June 1 at 10am. Hospitality celebration to follow in Fellowship Hall.
