The St. James’ Choir

The St. James’ Episcopal Church Adult Choir is a group of volunteer singers who provide choral accompaniment to the music at the 11:00 a.m. Sunday worship service.

The choir’s beautiful music can be heard from September through May and at other major feasts and festivals in the church year, including Christmas, Lent and Easter.

Over the years, the choir has become a close and affirming group of parishioners dedicated to leading worship.

St James Choir 2015

Organist Jim Zeloyle accompanies the choir at each service and at rehearsals on Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 8:45 p.m. in Bartholomew Hall for fun, fellowship and repertoire building.

There is a continuing need for new voices. New members are always welcome and are cordially invited to attend rehearsals on Thursday evening.

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.
