WELCOME to St. James Episcopal Church
of Saint James, New York
​490 North Country Road. St James, NY  11780


We celebrated the feast of St Nicholas . . .
the heroic 4th-century Bishop of Myra, a day early on Sunday, December 5th. In addition to the traditional gold coins, the kids were treated to other goodies, some teaching about St Nick and his connection to Christmas (rescuing children from slavery and secretly giving gifts by night to families in need), there were St Nicholas cookies and crafts to decorate.
