We will complete the roof work begun in 2024 by replacing the aging south roof and honour our Care of Creation values by using recycled‑material EnviroShake shingles. We will also restore the bell tower—a defining feature of St. James'—through brick repairs and full mortar replacement to ensure safety and longevity.
We will hire a part‑time Children & Youth Ministry Coordinator for five years to engage children, teens, and families. This role supports Sunday School and youth activities, builds relationships with parish families, and connects with partner parishes (St. Stephen’s and St. Paul’s) to invite young people into shared ministry and discipleship.
We will add up to seven off‑street parking spaces along Hamilton Street, including one designated accessible spot. This practical step makes it easier for everyone—especially those with mobility challenges and families with young children—to participate fully in parish life.
