As we prepare for Holy Week, there are aspects of our tradition and history that require constant scrutiny and revision in order to live peaceably and respectfully with our friends of other faiths. Mo. Storm addresses some of the ways our tradition continues to learn and grow in these challenging times.

Are you receiving our Weekly Updates on the Capital Campaign?

You can view the most recent email at the link, where you can also subscribe at the upper righthand corner.

Join us for Morning Prayer from the Book of Common Prayer, led by a lay person at St. James. You can watch anonymously, or make yourself known in the chat sidebar. We use the liturgy from dailyoffice.app. All welcome, and watch afterwards if you like!

Join us for an in person or online (whichever is most convenient for you) gathering to discuss "How to Know a Person: the Art of Seeing and Being Deeply Seen" by David Brooks. All are welcome! You can join us for all the gatherings or just the ones you're able to come to. We hope most people can meet in person, but for those joining us on Zoom, the link is here.

Sign up to “watch with Christ” for an hour. You simply enter the church and will be in front of the chapel altar by yourself (people within one household may sign up together for the same slot). This meaningful hour is wonderful preparation for Easter Sunday. All welcome to sign up!

Please consider honoring your loved ones with a contribution toward the music and flowers for our Easter services.  You can give online below, and please choose Easter Music and Flowers in the dropdown list and include your memorials or who you are grateful for in the memo section.  Deadline is Sunday, March 24th.

We're currently looking for long-term housing for our Ukrainian refugee, who is now preparing (as planned) to transition out of our church apartment. We need a volunteer to work with her to scour websites (Craigslist, Zillow, etc.) and find possible apartments in the area within her budget. Support is also provided from Hearts and Homes for Refugees, our partner organization. This is meaningful work, and just takes a little time out of your schedule to make a big difference.

Also, if anyone in the parish knows of a home apartment or possible living arrangement (alone or with a roommate), please contact Carol in the office: office@stjamesscarsdale.org. Any and all leads are welcome!

Join people from throughout the diocese in this effort to understand our history and the impact of Christian thinking, hymnody, and preaching on our Jewish neighbors. These sessions are free, with advanced registration required to obtain the link. 

Curious about the Episcopal Church? Interested in confirmation or reception into the Episcopal Church on April 14 when the bishop visits? Come bring your questions and get to know others at St. James in this question-driven introduction to the Episcopal Church and St. James the Less. Led by Mother Eliza and the St. James Newcomer Committee.

Mother Eliza prepares us for the Holy Week journey ahead with a glimpse into Jesus' teachings on dying to self and rising to new life. Sunday sermons are posted weekly, with audio and print versions available.

Serving this Sunday

We are so thankful for each every pledge made to St. James. Ongoing financial contributions from parishioners are how Episcopal churches operate. If you take advantage of anything in the church--worship services, classes for kids and adults, outreach programs, fellowship, anything at all--please make a pledge to help us sustain these programs. The annual average pledge at St. James is approx $3500.00. By the numbers, it costs $6000.00 per family to do everything we do. Click the picture above to make a pledge. It's easy and secure. You'll receive a response from the office and the rector. Thank you!
