Welcome
St. James' Parish is as diverse as our 300+ years of history. We draw from the Annapolis area and as far south as Calvert County. We have over 325 families and individuals. At the same time we are striving to, in some ways, remain a parish where everyone feels connected and a part of a vibrant Christian Community. Our parish emphasizes "Remembering the Past, Living our faith, and Worshipping into the Future". In the midst of the Eucharist each Sunday, we clearly proclaim "This is not our table, it is the Lord's, and everyone is Welcome". The Eucharist is extended to young and older, for we are all God's children. We are Sisters and Brothers in Christ and as such it is essential that we relate to each other as a family.

In March the Community Assistance Fund assisted eight families in the amount of $1,963.29. The assistance was for eviction prevention, electric and propane, gasoline, and Safeway Gift Cards. We work with a network of 5 churches that pools funds to help people with BGE and fuel oil bills that are higher than one church can pay. The Community Assistance Team thanks you for your support on the 1st Sunday as well as the funds received from the Lenten Soup Suppers and the Messiah Sing Along. The generosity of our Parishioners says a lot about who we are in Christ. It is a joy to be able to help our neighbors in need.
