We'd love for you to join us!

We would be pleased if you joined us in person or online from the comfort of your home for church services via Facebook Live at 9:30am.


Here is a PDF of this Sunday's bulletin for you to enjoy.
From Father Kim:

Dear All,

We are creating an Altar frontal for use on All Saints Sunday and the Sunday thereafter.
On it we will place the names of our dear departed loved ones! If not for Covid, we would ask individuals to place the names themselves but this year we cannot.

Please send us the names of your departed loved ones so we can add them!
 
This frontal will help us each year to remember our loved ones on this special Feast day.
 
ALSO – a reminder – Face masks on Sunday morning MUST be of the approved types!!
  • No scarfs or masks with valves!!
 
Peace,
Kim
From Eileen & Doug Marvel

Thank you to all of you who helped care for and cared about my mother over the past five years. Thank you for your cards, gifts, calls, and prayers as we mourn her loss. The support of our St. James family is helping to get us through this difficult time.

Psalm 63

1   O God, you are my God; eagerly I seek you; *
my soul thirsts for you, my flesh faints for you, as in a barren and dry land where there is no water.
2   Therefore I have gazed upon you in your holy place, *
that I might behold your power and your glory.
3   For your loving-kindness is better than life itself; *
my lips shall give you praise.
4   So will I bless you as long as I live *
and lift up my hands in your Name.
5   My soul is content, as with marrow and fatness, *
and my mouth praises you with joyful lips,
6   When I remember you upon my bed, *
and meditate on you in the night watches.
7   For you have been my helper, *
and under the shadow of your wings I will rejoice.
8   My soul clings to you; *
your right hand holds me fast.
9   May those who seek my life to destroy it *
go down into the depths of the earth;
10   Let them fall upon the edge of the sword, *
and let them be food for jackals.
11   But the king will rejoice in God; all those who swear by him will be glad; *
for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.
