Hello, friends! A well-loved Sunday School song begins, "I am the church. You are the church. We are the church together...." Saint James Presbyterian Church is a community of about 260 people who are all ages, from various backgrounds. It is a wonderful collage of humanity, and, though diverse, our community of faith is united around Jesus Christ. We have a pretty church building with a beautiful view of Bellingham Bay located at 910 14th Street, on the South Hill above the Fairhaven neighborhood. The building is not our church, however. The people are the church. Come visit us! Come and learn and serve and worship with us, so that we can be "the church together" with you!

Grace and Peace, The Rev. Mary Robinson-Mohr

Honoring 11 Years of Church Leadership

Having fulfilled her Call to St. James Presbyterian Church, we offer our heartfelt thanks to Reverend. Mary Robinson-Mohr for her ministry and leadership. Pastor Mary during Children's Service Pastor Mary began her ministry with us at St. James in October of 1997. During this eleven years she has brought a rich and ambitious ministry of the reformed faith, deeply grounded in the tenets of our PCUSA traditions. She has worked tirelessly to lift up a vision of peace in the world and in the Middle East, inspiring monthly ecumenical peace vigils in our community. She has provided leadership for bringing progressive voices of Christian works and wisdom to the church and to college students through the United Ministries in Higher Education. She has provided challenging, insightful and theologically-informed lessons to our congregation through Bible Study, sermons and a fantastic trip through Turkey and Greece. On that trip we witnessed the landscape of Paul's ministry, as well as Pastor Mary's abiding love of letting the Bible's history "emerge from the stones and the chards at our feet." We are grateful for her Member Presbyterian Church USA leadership in worship, ministry and mission, and in helping us to be an open and affirming congregation.

We wish Pastor Mary and her family the best for the future and to thank her for all of her gifts that she has shared with us and continues to give to the Presbytery, the Presbyterian Church USA, and God's world.
