A Place for You

We are all on a spiritual journey, and the parish family of St. James’ invites you to join us as we journey together.

Worship is the gathering together of persons who seek to encounter God through the beauty, wonder, mystery and mindfulness offered by the liturgy.

We invite you to join us in a meaningful way as we seek to worship God “in the beauty of holiness,” and to serve God by reaching out in love to the wider community.

So we’re holding a place for you at the table.

This is the table of sharing with the poor of the world with whom Jesus identified himself.

It is the table of communion with the earth in which Christ became incarnate.

So come to this table
…you who have much faith and you who would like to have more;
…you who have been here often and you who have not been here for a long time;
…you who have tried to follow Jesus and you who have failed.

Come. It is Christ who invites us to meet him here.
