SERVICES AND GATHERINGS THIS WEEK

SUNDAY, July 6^th – 10:00am – 4^th after Pentecost

If you are unable to attend worship in person, the service is live streamed.

For links to the service and the order of service please visit St. James at: stjamesdundas.ca or the St. James Facebook page.

Tuesday Evening Prayer

The Tuesday evening prayer group has evolved.

We are now meeting in a hybrid format. You are welcome to join on Tuesday evening at 6:15 in the parlour at St. James, or through Zoom at the same time. If you would like to join via Zoom,

please email Dana on Tuesdays by 4:00pm to receive the Zoom meeting link.

The meeting is a combination of prayer and discussion of either a devotional or a passage from scripture. We look forward to welcoming you.

WEDNESDAY – COMPLINE – 9:15 p.m.

Compline is a short service of night prayer. The heart of Compline is the recitation of several psalms. There is a short reading from scripture, intercession, and time for reflection. It is a beautiful way to close out an active day. Compline is offered by St. James’ through Facebook to bring the community together. If you cannot join live, the service is available afterwards on St. James’ Facebook channel.

EfM (Education for Ministry)

Now is the time to consider if you would like to sign up for EfM. EfM helps the faithful encounter the breadth and depth of the Christian tradition and bring it into conversation with their experiences of the world as they study, worship, and engage in theological reflection together. Contact Carleon or Peter if you are interested.

Calling all Gardeners:

It is finally great gardening weather. Do you have a passion for gardening, have a connection with Mother Earth, are a casual gardener or just like to get your hands dirty?

The gardens at St. James could use some tending. At times just weeding, watering, and deadheading are needed. At other times transplanting. If you could spare half an hour or more please consider helping with the gardens. About 25 sunflowers that were grown from seed were donated and planted in a small garden by the front (orange) steps surrounded by a very badly constructed chicken wire fence (by Barry) to keep the squirrels from eating them. They will need watering until they get used to their new home. Any help is greatly appreciated. If you are interested please contact Barry.
