FAMILIES

All ages and all kinds of families are welcome!

Mission

At St. James the Great, we serve all children, youth, young adults, and all understandings of family.

Ministry

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.

Families & Children

As a multi-generational church, we celebrate the gift of faith through worship, in conversation, through learning, in fellowship, and in service.

What we’re learning this month in Kids’ Church

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it . . . ” —Psalm 24:1 This verse involves understanding that God owns everything, and we are entrusted to take care of the land, animals, and resources by keeping them clean and healthy. Here at St. James, we believe that every day is Earth Day, and the children have made a list on how we can be good stewards of our planet:

1. Save water by taking a short shower and using a cup when we brush our teeth.

2. Turn off the lights when we are not using them.
3. Pick up litter to prevent harm to animals on land and in the sea.
4. Practice “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”.
5. Plant seeds like flowers, trees or vegetables and nurture them.
6. Enjoy nature and respect all living things including people.
7. Thank God for his creation. Taking care of our environment is a daily act of stewardship and a way to love God and serve others.

Love,

Ms. Krishen
