COMMITTED TO CHRIST
Committed to Christ is a church-wide discipleship journey with the potential to transform every household and the church itself. For this reason, we want our entire congregation to get in on this transformational experience.
To further support you in your commitment St. James is offering a six-session growth group opportunity. Growth Groups give you a chance to meet and network with members of the St. James Community who have decided to be more committed to Christ in 2018. Groups, meet at various times and locations.
