• For nearly 100 years, St. James has been squarely situated in the Historic District of Old North Knoxville. We are proud of the way we have served our neighbors and the support we have received from them. With help from Donna S, we look forward to even greater collaboration in the years to come.

• “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” We are so fortunate Darrel C is the friendly mail courier who serves St. James. In addition to being very conscientious about prompt mail delivery, he always has such a cheerful disposition.

• One in six Knoxville residents currently live at or below the poverty line. How blessed are we in Knoxville to be served by Gina W and Carolyn H at Compassion Coalition? St. James is proud to work tirelessly with them to feed and tend God’s sheep.

• Thanks to Susan & Boyce D, the Doorstep Ministry is now equipped to store more frozen and refrigerated supplies for the bagged lunches they distribute through the week. Their donation of a full size side by side refrigerator/freezer helps to ensure we always have the food product we need ready!

• Susan B, with the Knoxville CAC, is very familiar with our neighborhood and St. James. Her empathy and understanding of the daily struggle faced by neighbors on a fixed income, is enormous. We are pleased to welcome her “home” in June/July to present a series of financial literacy sessions to neighbors struggling with poverty.

• Special thanks to the St. James “move crew” who assisted in transporting some rather large pieces of furniture to St. James donated by Sheila & Tupper M for the Neighbor Day Auction. Members of the crew on this occasion included Charles L, Charlie S, Rick B, and Kevin J-P.



• Tom C has combined his expertise in the field of security and craftsmanship in the area of woodworking to help us update our framed welcome sign at the front door to the church. There is much more to sign making than meets the eye.
