Family Life Commission
This commission coordinates groups that support parishioners
in all life situations – marriage, families, singles, those
who are grieving and those who are new to our parish. If you
are interested in volunteering in any of the following activities,
please contact: Rob Hudson at 840-2499.
Casserole Club
Frozen meals are prepared by parishioners and placed in the freezer in Bryan Hall or Shelton Hall. Meals are then delivered to families with newborns and those recovering from an illness or surgery.
Mothers and Others
This is a playgroup for mothers with preschoolers. The non-denominational group meets each Monday from 10a-noon at St. James in the gym or at the church playground depending on weather. This is a great way for mothers to meet others while engaging in play for your children.
Happy Hearts
Happy Hearts, the seniors group at St. James, plans interesting day trips to locations in the surrounding area and coordinates other interesting events. There is no telling where you might spot members of Happy Hearts!
