The Education program at St. James' includes programs for all ages…children, youth and adults.  Formal instruction is imperative for the spiritual growth of all. 

Christian Education for Children and Youth

Children participate in a structured curriculum, designed to expose the child to all areas of the Christian faith. Young adults participate in classes to prepare for their future adult Christian life. They are offered many opportunities to serve before, during, and following worship. Participating in worship from a young age creates an involved Episcopalian in the years to come. Youth are also encouraged to attend monthly fellowship groups. Geared for their age, these groups provide a fun, safe environment for youth to learn about God and each other.

Christian Education for Adults

Adults are encouraged to attend a variety of classes to continue the study of their faith. As we all know, the learning doesn’t stop just because you are an adult! Join us for our Adult Education Programs. We host two separate programs, one on Wednesday night and one on Thursday morning, so you are sure to find one to fit your schedule. We look forward to learning with you!
