No Bible Study this week
2024-08-28 11:00 - 12:00 | Online
There is no Bible Study on August 28th. See you on Wednesday, September 7th!
About Bible Study at St. James’ Church:
Our weekly Bible study on Zoom usually focuses on the Gospel for the upcoming Sunday and is led by Mtr. Meredith. We practice a contemplative, prayerful style of Bible study that focuses on how God is speaking to us through our questions, responses, curiosities and doubts as we engage Scripture.
The study is followed by a brief, optional service of noonday prayer.
Join in any Wednesday at 11 am. No previous preparation is required. The Zoom link is distributed via our weekly email newsletter (or contact the parish office).

"Mary Strong" Rosary Prayer Group

The “Mary Strong” rosary prayer group meets on the first Sunday of each month. We meet in the Church at 9:15 between our 8 and 10 am services. All are welcome!
Never prayed the rosary before? No problem! This group will teach you everything you need to know.
Yes, Episcopalians can and do pray the rosary! Just as we ask our friends to pray for us, we can ask the saints—that great cloud of witnesses—to intercede on our behalf. Praying the rosary draws us close to the heart of St. Mary the God-bearer as we meditate on Jesus’ ministry, crucifixion, resurrection and ascension.
