Annual Giving

Your gifts to St. James’s make ministry happen. We have a bright future full of challenges and opportunities to serve Christ. Among other things, we are being called to deepen our own spiritual lives, to broaden our outreach, to strengthen our education and to nurture our youth fully in the faith. We are blessed with new and renovated facilities and exciting new opportunities lie ahead.

There is tremendous energy, talent and commitment at this church, and we should be proud of our ministries that touch so many lives.

St. James’s has been surrounded by God’s grace during tough economic times…growing membership, new physical space, innovative outreach programs. Our people and programs define St. James’s as “a steeple, a homing beacon, a spiritual GPS.” Imagine where else our spiritual GPS may lead us! A sound and expanded church budget will enable us to live more fully in our buildings and our mission to be “doers” of God’s word.

You can pledge today by completing the Online Pledge Form or contact Poconna Thiel or Chip Woodson at the church office, 355-1779.

We have been entrusted with so many gifts from God. Let us use these gifts to “do good, to be rich in good works, generous , and ready to share.” Then, we will “take hold of the life that really is life.” (1 Timothy: 6:18-19)
