Community
Just like a physical mountain climb, your spiritual journey requires equipment, training, strength, endurance, passion and guides to help you find your way. That’s why we recommend spiritual exploration in community groups, where you and others like you can get the training and equipment you need and you can benefit from the guidance of more experienced spiritual adventurers. On Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings, we have great opportunities for your to become part of a community group or bible study class. Why not check us out? Come grow with us!
Starting Point!
This might be just for you if you’re asking the question, “How do I start becoming a disciple and follower of Jesus Christ?” Starting Point! is a 4-week gathering that will be offered every month for you to be introduced into the community life at St. James Church. You will learn about what we believe and how you can plug in into the life of the church. Held in the Anson Hobbs Parlor. For more information or to register, call 918.299.1133.
