SERVICE SCHEDULE AT ST. JAMES’

 
Sundays - 10am

Holy Eucharist

4th Sunday of the month is Morning Prayer

Healing Service - Once a Quarter

Office hours are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays 9 a.m. - 12noon.

St. James will be participating in the downtown trick or treating on Friday, October 24, 5-7pm.  We need candy donations and volunteers to dress up and hand out candy.  Let an MST member know, if you would like to help.

REMINDER:  The youth are still collecting bottles/cans for their annual Christmas shopping event.  Bottles/cans can be brought to the church and left in the can outside the women’s washroom.  Please make sure they are clean and dry.  

Time to start thinking about your pledge to St. James.  Pledge letters and cards will be mailed out next week.  If you do not receive a letter and would like to make a pledge for 2026, please notify the office and a pledge card will be mailed to you. Cards should be back in the office by Wednesday, November 12, so the vestry can prepare the budget for the December approval.

Your pledges help keep the church moving forward.

The Ministry Support Team is looking for volunteers to read and light candles for All Saints Day; Sunday, November 2.

The MST is also looking  for volunteers during Advent for readers for candle lighting and youth for youth sermon stories.

If you would like to volunteer for any of these, please let someone on the MST know you would like to help.

Besides giving to the church to keep things running, we have another place donations can be made.

The "Youth Activity Fund."  This fund will help cover costs for youth functions that are planned by Katie Chipman-Begsma and the MST.  Donations will always be welcome to help fund these activities.  Please remember to put "Youth Activities" on the check memo line.


Pancake Breakfasts are always held after the 10 a.m. service on the second Sunday of the month, with the exception of  June, July, and August.


One last thing, another way to give back to St. James' is to volunteer or get involved when asked.

It takes all of us to keep St. James' going.
