Here at Saint James', we have members who like to dress up for church but we also have members who dress more casually. The choice is yours to make. Wear what you feel comfortable wearing.
Saint James' worships in the Anglican tradition — stemming from the early church originating in England and Great Britain. Today, we worship in a fashion that is Protestant, yet Catholic.
We place our focus on our Lord Jesus Christ, remembering always that he sacrificed himself so that we may be saved. We strive to spread the Gospel in a thoughtful and meaningful manner so that we can bring the Good News to all people.
We uphold the Historic Creeds such as the Nicene Creed, which affirms our faith in God the Holy Trinity. We emphasize the need for Baptism and the celebration of the Lord's Supper.
