Sunday Worship

October 4, 2021 Update:

Friends,

This week we moved into Phase 5 of the reopening plan in Nova Scotia. Masks are still required for worship and throughout the building but we no longer have limits on the number of people who can attend worship and will start singing again on Thanksgiving Sunday.

Proof of vaccine is not required for our Sunday morning worship service (although everyone is strongly encouraged to be vaccinated). For all other activities that happen at St. James, as well as for funerals, weddings, and special worship services, proof of vaccination will be required to participate.

The online worship service will continue to be posted on Facebook and our website and hopefully will be ready by 3pm on Sunday afternoon.

The groups and activities at St. James are making plans to restart as the fall unfolds. Please keep watching the website and our social media for more information.

God Bless,

Rev. Peter
