Dear Good People of St. James,

Holy Week and Easter Sunday are behind us, Pastor Rachael has a beautiful baby girl, and Confirmation will be here on May 19th! By the time you read this there will be only two more Sundays in Eastertide. On May 5th the sermon will be “Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors….” and on Mother’s Day, May 12th, we will ponder the opening line of the “Abba prayer”…….”Our Father, who art in heaven…..” These two months have flown by and I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting you all. It was a blessing to be part of your community of faith and to be “back home” for this brief time of supply. May God continue to bless your individual lives and your life together as a church.

With faith, hope, and love, “Pastor” Sara Jane
