All Are Welcome

Sunday Service 10:00 AM

Join us for worship, reflection, and connection in a welcoming community. Experience the grace and love of Christ at St. James, where traditional and modern expressions of faith blend in vibrant services. Expect engaging music, thoughtful prayers, and a safe space for your faith journey. We invite all to share in our commitment to reflect God's love and service. Come see how we strive to be Christ's hands and feet in the world.

At St. James, we celebrate a diverse and inclusive church family. Among us are many wonderful families with children and young adults with special needs who participate fully in worship and community life. Our special needs ministry offers a welcoming space where individuals of all abilities can feel safe, spiritually connected, and valued in their service to God.

Each year, we host events that promote awareness, foster connection, and bring joy, enriching our whole congregation. This ministry began with the vision of Maria Johnston, a dedicated St. James member and mother of two children with autism, who wanted to ensure all families could experience belonging in faith.

Our mission is simple: to walk together in love and service, creating a place where everyone can grow in faith and be part of something greater.
