MINISTRIES & VOLUNTEER WORK

Ways to Serve at Saint James

We strive to align our acts of service with the unique gifts God has entrusted to each of us. Saint James offers a variety of volunteer opportunities—whether it's assisting with Sunday School, helping in the Divine Service, or maintaining our church building—so that all may serve in ways that honor God and build up His Church.
