St. James is a Caring for Creation and Reconciling in Christ congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that welcomes people of all races, cultures, ethnicities, and all sexual orientations and gender identities and expressions. As a congregation we acknowledge the prevalent marginalization of people in our community and we strive to walk toward racial equity and justice in our church and the world.
