Make Time for Contemplation
If you are seeking creative ideas, go out walking. Angels whisper to a man when he goes for a walk. – Raymond Inmon Starting in August, the contemplative time which used to happen every Wednesday at 5:15 at the church, will be changing venues, timing and formats. The last regular weekly meeting of Contemplative Time at the church will be on July 22. Thereafter, once a month a participant will plan a quiet walk (or sit) in nature, preceded by a reading/prayer/offering to contemplate while walking. Discussion of our experiences will occur with some dinner or just dessert time at a local restaurant for sharing and fellowship. Please contact either Doris or Lory (or the parish office) for more details, which will change monthly. If you’d like to be on the contact list to be notified when and where we’ll be meeting each month, please let us know. Come and enjoy the sounds of nature and the quiet of your mind, along with good food and connection.

Rise Against Hunger:
10,000+ meals 5 churches 1 Mission Can we pack 10,152 meals in just two hours? On Saturday, August 15, from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM, five local churches are joining forces at St. James Episcopal to do exactly that. By spending a few hours together, packing thousands of meals, we here in Lenoir can make a definitive impact on the lives of the most vulnerable around the world. For more information, including a brief informative video from Rise Against Hunger, see our CARE Outreach page, under "Get Involved". Churches taking part alongside St. James include St. Paul's AME Zion Church, Central Advent Christian Church, 1st Presbyterian Church, and College Avenue Baptist Church. 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.
