Rector's Page
Welcome to St. James!
I'm so glad you've found your way to the virtual home for our church. Especially in this current time of anxiety, we hope this site will be a resource to help you pray at home and in our virtual gathering space. We offer two services on Sunday: Rite I at 8:00 am, and Rite II at 10:00 am. Zoom is available at 10:00 am for those who are unable to join us in person. The link to access the livestream is the first listing in the Links section below.
