    { We're Glad You've Visited }

    We welcome you and invite you to enter into a deeper exploration of a community that shares the love of Jesus Christ with each other, our city, and the world. It takes more than a few words to describe a parish, but there are two things we can tell you right away: we are committed to Jesus Christ and from that commitment flows our care for one another and our ministries. In every ministry and program, we at St. James' Church on Madison Avenue at 71st Street invite you to enter more deeply into the life we share in Christ. We hope you will join us.

    The Rev. Brenda G. Husson, Rector

    { First Time Families }

    We've found that St. James' mix of rich Anglican tradition and innovative, fun family worship and programming is just the right recipe for helping kids know God's love.

    When you come to church at St. James', you can expect to find...

    SPACE TO PRAY. Our services include hymns, prayers, and time for silence, as well as Communion and sermons that connect our Scriptures to our lives.

    SPACE TO BE YOURSELF. Worshipers at St. James' come from many different places, backgrounds, and perspectives.

    SPACE TO MAKE CONNECTIONS. Whether it's your first time or your thousandth, there's always an opportunity to get better connected with God and one another. Join us at coffee hour or stop by the Welcome station on your way out. We look forward to meeting you.

UPCOMING PARISH EVENTS

Parish-Wide Events

The Parish Life Committee works to create fellowship opportunities across all ages and to connect parishioners who may attend different Sunday services. To do this, the Committee plans several parish-wide events and activities throughout the year.

Annual events include:

  • Homecoming Sunday 

  • The Second Time Around Thrift Sales

  • Icon Writing Retreat

  • Share the Joy Toy Drive

  • Advent Wreath Workshop

  • Christmas Boutique

  • Advent Tea, followed by Christmas Caroling

  • Christmas Caroling with festive reception

  • Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper

  • Maundy Thursday Agape Supper

  • Spring Antiques & Treasures

The Parish Life Committee always welcomes new volunteers, who are eager to decorate, welcome, and join in the fun.

Get Involved

None of these special occasions would happen without a wonderful group of volunteers! If you can hang a banner, glue glitter, pour a drink, meet and greet, stuff envelopes, light candles, arrange flowers, write a name tag, clean out a closet, sell tickets, or use a computer, then we have just the job for you!

Volunteering at St. James' is a great way to meet people, make new friends, and to become involved. Newcomers are particularly encouraged to join in.
