The Clergy Discretionary Fund makes assistance available to persons in need and helps individuals through short-term crises, often providing a bridge back to a more secure future. Those receiving help are screened by St. James' clergy and the clergy alone make decisions about funding; confidentiality honors the dignity of those who receive assistance.

The ministry of the Clergy Discretionary Fund continues throughout the entire year, but is particularly dependent upon gifts at Christmas and Easter to ensure that its work may go forward; it is a powerful way to share the hope of these seasons. The Clergy Discretionary Fund carries no administrative cost; your entire gift goes to those who need our help. Please be generous and help us spread the good news of the season.Your gift is fully tax-deductible.

Thank you!
