Serving Since 1891
When I asked Vanya for an archive photo of the church I never anticipated that my current photo was taken at the exact same angle as the one over 100 years ago. What resulted is a short promotional video that - while it features our building - speaks to the understanding that members of this congregation have been in service here, on this corner since 1891. The building is a physical reminder of the humanness it has seen and the doors to God’s Love that have been opened. Karen’s sermon last week titled: Do you want to get well? hit close to home for many of us. Watch and listen again if you want to be challenged and engaged in the mystery as it unfolds in you and here at James Bay United. Message begins right after the Bev's reading of the scripture.

Sunday WorshipEaster 7 - Sunday, May 29, 2022 This week we come together around one of the strangest stories – some would think off-the-scale irrelevant – only to discover a wealth of guidance for us in this very time in our lives. We’ll be celebrating communion too. Word and Table … these powerful means of grace through which the Spirit draws near, even to the unsuspecting! If you are joining online, I encourage you to bring some bread, juice or wine to whatever is your sanctuary space. If you are participating in person, we’ll have gluten free bread as well for any who need it. I look forward to gathering with you. For more infomation visit:
