“Is it possible for a church to have 23 ministries?” a visitor once whispered at St. James Episcopal Church. It’s a question many ask upon discovering the vibrant life within this Midvale sanctuary. St. James Episcopal Church isn’t just a building; it’s a testament to the power of community. The church is named for James the Greater. It’s a parish within the Episcopal Diocese of Utah. And it sits on seven acres, housing a 20,000-square-foot building and beautiful grounds. These grounds aren’t just aesthetically pleasing; they’re the heart of the church’s outreach. The gardens overflow with produce, destined for the St. James Food Bank, which serves over 1,500 clients monthly. This food bank, an arm of the Utah Food Bank and the Utah Diaper Bank, operates solely on volunteer power. Inside, the church buzzes with activity. The choir rehearses, their voices filling the sanctuary. The Altar Guild meticulously prepares for services, ensuring every detail is perfect. The Building and Grounds ministry works tirelessly, their dedication evident in every repaired lightbulb and manicured lawn. Beyond the practical, St. James Episcopal Church nurtures spiritual growth. The Christian Formation ministry delves into scripture and current events. Licensed lay ministers guide worship, offer pastoral care, and spread the Gospel. And for those seeking lighter moments, the Parish Games Group hosts monthly game nights, complete with potlucks and laughter. The Knitting Circle, though smaller than in its heyday, still creates warm garments for the Road Home Midvale Family Resource Center and Shelter. The Men’s Coffee Group gathers weekly for conversation and prayer. The Women’s Coffee Group connects virtually and in person, supporting each other through prayer requests. St. James Episcopal Church is more than just a place of worship; it’s a beacon of service, fellowship, and faith. It’s where the spirit of James the Greater lives on, not in stained glass and sermons, but in the tireless work and unwavering love of its community.
