ANNOUNCEMENTS

OUR ANNUAL MEETING is scheduled for Sunday, January 31, 2021.  Mark your calendars to hear the heroic stories of how our parish has endured and our ministries have thrived over the past year.

LIVE SUNDAY SERVICES will begin on January 31, 2021. Services will be held on Sunday mornings at 10am by Zoom, followed by a social time. Pre-recorded YouTube services will continue to be offered during this time.

BECAUSE OF THE INAUGURATION 1) Our Wednesday mid-week Zoom Service will be held on Thursday at 10am this week only; also, 2) Our office will be open on Thursday of this week, instead of Wednesday.

SUNDAY DROP-IN COFFEE & CONVERSATION runs from 10 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. on Zoom. tinyurl.com/sjgi-zoom

Kid’s “ADVENTURES IN THE BIBLE” continues today, January 17th, at 9:15 a.m. by Zoom. We will continue to meet every Sunday morning via Zoom to watch together the lesson and discuss.  And, of course, there will be greetings, best things, and silly faces! Zoom Link: tinyurl.com/sjgi-zoom

ANNUAL REPORTS are due in the office by Wednesday, January 20th. We realize many unusual things happened this year, and many usual things did not happen this year. Nevertheless, many of you came up with wonderfully creative ways to continue your ministries! Record your challenges and your successes in your annual report, for posterity and for inspiration in the year ahead.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED VESTRY? If you are interested, speak to Fr. Phil at 734-775-7140 or Blanche at 734-307-3075

QUESTIONS FOR SERMONS are now being received. If you have a question about anything relating to Church, Christianity, Society, or living the Christian Life, send your question to Questions@SaintJamesGI.net. If Fr. Phil gets enough questions he will dedicate a February Sermon to answering them. (If there aren’t enough he will still make sure you get an answer!)

WE ARE GOING LIVE! Starting on January 31, 2021 we will be live-streaming our 10:00AM services on Zoom and hopefully Facebook! Look for more information in weeks to come.

MIDDLE SCHOOL YOUTH GROUP continues today, January 17th, at 6:30pm by Zoom. tinyurl.com/sjgi-zoom
