Welcome to St. James’!
St. James’ is a vibrant, open, joyful, fun-loving community of faith. We are intentional about growing in relationship with God and one another, about caring for the earth God created, and about serving the needs of the world God loves. Whether you are passing through the area, in town for a while, or looking for a spiritual home, we are delighted to welcome you.
May God Bless You,
St. James’ Senior Pastor
St. James’ Episcopal Church is located on East Genesee Street in downtown Skaneateles. We are blessed to be right on the water capturing the amazing views of Skaneateles Lake. 2016 was the bicentennial year of the congregation, though the present building is “younger” and has recently undergone significant construction including a new roof and renovations to the nave and chapel. It is a great blessing for us to offer four unique services each week, providing a diverse range of worship options from quiet contemplative to formal to high-energy praise services. Eucharist or Communion is celebrated at every service. The casual Sunday service is intentionally family-friendly. All are welcome at any of the worship times.
St. James’ Service schedule:
Sunday:
7:30 am Traditional Eucharist, Spoken.
9:00 am Formal Eucharist with Organ & Choir
10:45 am Causal Eucharist with Worship Band
Wednesday:
6:00 pm Quiet Eucharist with healing prayers
Parking for each service is on the street and is free until noon on Sundays and after 5 pm during the week. There are reserved spaces for handicap accessibility in front of the Church. East of the church has free parking anytime on the street. The lot across the street is for the Presbyterian Church use only.
