The St. James Pride Month Book DiscussionPlease join vestry member Matt Wallace and Father Jon Feuss in the vestry room after the 10:30 service the first four Sundays in June as we make our way through From Sin to Amazing Grace: Discovering the Queer Christ by Fr. Patrick Cheng. For centuries, LGBTQ+ people have been called sinful. Fr. Cheng's book asks how, in light of that painful history, LGBTQ+ Christians can reclaim the doctrines of sin and God's amazing grace in their spiritual lives. We will also discuss the joys and challenges of being an LGBTQ+ Christian. All parishioners are welcome at these discussions. Please email Fr. Jon Feuss at jfeuss@stjla.org if you would like to participate. Last Chance to Sign Up: The Languages of PentecostWe will be celebrating Pentecost on June 8, 2025. If you speak a language other than English and would like to help read a portion of the lesson from Acts, please email Father Jon (jfeuss@stjla.org) by June 2. And don’t forget to wear red!
