Give a Gift

There are many ways to financially support Saint James' and our ministries. Saint James' is a member of the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. All gifts are tax-deductible. All accounts are audited annually.

Contribute to Regular/Weekly Offering  

We know there are times you can’t attend a Sunday service and you want to place an offering in the plate. This is your way of giving —  even though you couldn’t be present at the Eucharist.

Animal Care Ministry

In October, 2021, a new Outreach ministry was created  on the Feast of Saint Francis. The message was very succinct: “Saint Francis challenged us to focus on this major premise — God created animals. They are our brothers, sisters or our children who require our care and our love”. You can donate to the “Animal Care Ministry” which benefits animal shelters and animal care organizations throughout our area.

Buildings and Grounds

Donations to the Building and Grounds Fund will be used to keep our historic building and property safe and attractive.

Deacon’s Discretionary Fund

The Deacon’s Discretionary Fund is used only for purposes consistent with the charitable nature of the Church’s activities, such as support of the poor, hungry, homeless, and other ministerial needs in our community as well as beyond our geographical confines. We partner with many other churches in an ecumenical spirit to provide support for those in need.

Music

Donations to the Music Fund will be used for our Choir section leaders, guest instrumentalists, organ upkeep, and other similar expenses.

Rector’s Discretionary Fund

Sewing and Blanket Ministry 

The Healing and Joy Blanket Ministry extolls the power of prayer and the comfort of a specially-created blanket for the recipients. Dedicated parishioners convene on a regular basis to sew blankets from many donated fabrics which are used for healing and joy and are blessed monthly at a regular service and Eucharist.

Leave a Legacy 

Generations of faithful, forward-thinking parishioners have remembered the work of Saint James' in their wills or have created endowments in honor of loved ones. We are happy to speak with you about creating your own legacy gift.
