Bible Study
2024-07-17 11:00 - 12:00 | Online
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).

On Friday, July 19th, join Mother Meredith for an informal field trip to Holy Cross Monastery. Discover this beautiful and sacred place—just 20 minutes from St. James’—that can be a resource for your own spiritual life.
Our day together will include a tour of the monastery and grounds, noonday prayer, and a delicious lunch (prepared by a CIA-trained chef) with the monks and other guests.
The formal program will begin at 10:30 am and end after lunch. If you’d like to add Holy Eucharist with the monks to your day, arrive at 8:45 am. You might also wish to plan to visit the monastery’s well-stocked book store and gift shop, bring a book or quiet activity to enjoy in the afternoon, or just stay for some time in quiet prayer.
RSVP to Anne McGrath at mcgrath.mosto@gmail.com by July 10th, please. Suggested donation is $15 for lunch (can be dropped off directly at the monastery).
