A Zoom class during Lent - Passion Week in Visual Arts

Join St. James’ church member and art historian Nancy Bishop for four Tuesday evenings in Lent to see how artists and craftspeople through the ages have interpreted the Gospel accounts of Passion Week.

Our class will meet from 7-8 pm on the following Tuesday nights: March 3, 10, 17, and 24. RSVP to Kate if you are interested in joining: kcress@stjla.org.

Lunar New Year and Ash Wednesday Chapel this Week at St. James' School

This past Tuesday at St. James’ School we celebrated Lunar New Year, including K-Pop music, Korean drumming and a traditional bowing ceremony. Then the next day we celebrated Ash Wednesday, including the imposition of ashes. It is meaningful and fun to celebrate multiple traditions at St. James’ School.

Supporting Saint James in 2026

Dear Friends,

One thing that is incredibly helpful for us to is how much you hope to be able to give to Saint James’ in 2026 – the church word for this is “pledging.” Pledging allows us to create a balanced budget and plan out our ministries for the upcoming year. Please take some time to pray this week about how you’ll be able to support the great work this community does here. We hope that everyone will pledge.

To date, we have pledges totaling $ $803,868.28. Our goal for a balanced budget is $904,000. We are 89% of the way there. If you have not yet pledged, you can make your pledge on online here.

We wish you many blessings,

The Vestry of Saint James
