 Make Time for Contemplation
Wednesdays at 5:15pm

Every Wednesday evening from 5:15pm-6:00pm there will be a contemplative program provided for all who seek a time of quiet and contemplation. It will begin in the narthex (front entrance) of the church.  Each week a different leader will present a practice that will include a description of a contemplative exercise, maybe a Bible verse or other spiritual reading, some quiet time, and a short period for people to process their experience if desired. Please, join us weekly and become part of this spiritual gathering. And you are also invited, if you would like, to schedule a week to bring your own contemplative practice to share with others. [On June 25 the Pride Labyrinth Walk will substitute for our regular Contemplative Time.]

Creation Care at St. James
As a way of responding in faith to God's call to be stewards of this world, we are seeking new ways to support the diverse life on this planet and to work for its healing.  Last spring we put in our first native plant garden, and expanded into a second area of the church yard last fall.  We have changed our fluorescent light tubes to LED tubes.  We moved to biodegradable to-go containers for our Room at the Table program, and added bamboo rather than plastic forks.   We celebrate The Season of Creation each fall, and provide different ways of sharing with each other the things we are doing individually to lessen our damaging footprint on creation.
