We love and serve Christ when we love and serve one another. The clergy and laity share the responsibility for the pastoral care of the flock at St. James'. While much day-to-day pastoral care occurs as parishioners share prayer concerns in small group settings, there may be times when more intensive care is needed. The clergy, aided by the lay Pastoral Associates, visit shut-ins, bring communion to the sick, and walk with those experiencing times of joy as well as times of grief or need.
