Spring Clean-Up 2016 held June 4th

06/23/2016 by Beth

St James Lay Weeders at WorkA thanks to all of the participants who gave of their time and talents for the biennial event at the parish.

The primary tasks centered around enhancing the border gardens and flower beds surrounding the church and the parish hall; placing mulch around the planter boxes adjoining the rear parking lot; and revitalizing the compost pile adjoining the southeast corner of the church’s rear parking lot.

The morning of churchyard stewardship was not only co-ed, but multigenerational to boot!

A special thank you to Property Committee Chair Tom Hudecheck for organizing the event and to Carol McConnell, head of the “Lay Weeders,” for her guidance surrounding both beautiful flowers and noxious weeds!

About Saint James

There are a number of Saint Jameses in the New Testament – Saint James the brother of Jesus (‘St. James the Just’), Saint James the son of Zebedee (‘St. James the Great’) and Saint James the son of Alphaeus (‘St. James the Less’). The shells that adorn the outside of the parish hall (a symbol of St. James the Great) suggest that our parish is named for this St. James.

Site Dedication

This site was made possible by, and is dedicated to, the Loving Memory of Judy Dress.
