At St. James the Great, we serve all children, youth, young adults, and all understandings of family.
At St. James the Great, we seek to find a common place where all members—regardless of history, affiliation, experience, or profession, can find and foster a relationship with God in community. Our family events and ministries are to be a place where anyone can experience loving relationship with our church through meaningful gatherings of work and play.
As a multi-generational church, we celebrate the gift of faith through worship, in conversation, through learning, in fellowship, and in service.

Hello, church! We hope everyone had a wonderful summer and that your new school year is off to a good start! This month we will focus on some of the highlights in the book of Jeremiah. Jeremiah served God faithfully for 40 years. During that time the people ignored and rejected him. In today’s social media-driven world, many people measure success and seek validation through likes and followers.
To some, success is achieving goals and acquiring popularity, power and wealth. By these standards, Jeremiah was a miserable failure. His preaching was unsuccessful by human standards, yet he did not fail in his task. He remained faithful to God. are called to do the same. People’s acceptance or rejection of us is not the measure of our success. God’s approval alone should be our standard for service, and we must share God’s love to others.
Love,
Ms. Krishen and Miss Araceli
