St. James' Episcopal Church
Nourished by Word and Sacrament, we are sent out to do the work God has given us to do, to love and serve God as faithful witnesses of Christ our Lord

Service Schedules

We conduct a Wednesday Noon Holy Eucharist service (12:00-12:30 p.m.), Friday Morning Prayer at 8:30 a.m., and three services on Sunday, each with its own identity:

7:45 a.m. Holy Eucharist, Rite I

Our early morning service uses the more traditional language of The Book of Common Prayer and usually does not have music.

9:00 a.m. Holy Eucharist, Rite II, with Children's Chapel

While children are welcome at ALL services, this service draws the largest number of children because it features a blend of traditional hymns with more children-friendly music and songs and three separate Children's Chapels which are offered during the adult sermon – one for children aged 3-5, one for 1st-3rd graders, and one for 4th-5th graders – so that children and adults worship with age-appropriate messages, songs, and prayers.

11:15 a.m. Holy Eucharist, Rite I or II, with Children's Chapel and Healing Service

A traditional liturgy is enhanced with classical hymns and music led by an adult parish choir and musicians from the Shenandoah University Music program. The service varies between Rite I and Rite II, depending on season, and also offers Children's Chapel during the adult sermon, as well as prayers for healing during Holy Eucharist.

Professionally-staffed child care is available at all services. Christian Education for all ages (pre-K, 1st-5th grade Sunday School, middle school forum, high school forum, and adult forums) takes place each Sunday from 10:10 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Plenty of parking is also available at the School Board Administration Building.
