The Mission of Saint James
Saint James exists to proclaim the gospel of Christ in worship and ministry, seeking to include all of God's children,
both those in our community of faith and those beyond our doors, while offering the love of Christ.
In 2011, St. James Episcopal Church of Bradley Beach celebrated its Centennial.
Parishioners and well-wishers can now donate and/or pay their pledges online by clicking on the VANCO tab above.
