JOY GROUP is a new group formed at St. James for "Just Other Youth".
Looking at our congregation, the Christian Education Team has taken on a ministry for the adults, men & women, at St. James.
This new ministry is called JOY – Just Other Youth.
It is a ministry we have formed as we search for ways to involve all of the people who worship at St. James.
Offerings will be educational and social. We will be learning about how we reflect the love of God in our community – taking on community service and projects. We will learn how we reflect the love of God by enjoying outings where we learn about each other, geology, different organizations, and different cultures. Some events will benefit our church. Some will offer assistance to the community. Some outings will be educational – like the workshop on the Book of Revelation. If anyone has an idea for a topic to discuss or place to visit, let the team know. Please feel free to invite a friend to come along, events will be open to guests.
“JOY” group heads to Big Timber……
Saturday August 3rd - St. James was represented by these lovely members at a workshop presented by Pastor Julia Seymour at the Big Timber Lutheran Church.
“A class to help you be less afraid of the BOOK of REVELATION” was studied by all
followed by lunch, snacks and a time of fellowship.
Donna, Joy, Evelyn, Leanne, Pat, Judy and Karen, joined Pastor Tonia for a time of laughter and learning.
We’ve got a date for
“JOY, JOY,JOY, JOY Down in my heart – Where?”
JOY to the world – starting with Butte.
“I tell you,” Jesus replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”
(Luke 19:40)
JOY - Just Other Youth – will be taking their first Road Trip this fall. We have talked about a ministry specifically for those of us who have graduated from the church’s Youth Group. Those of us – some retired, some still on the job – who need a spot of fellowship and Christian Education in our lives.
On Saturday, September 28, 2019 we will take a road trip to Butte. After a short devotion - and spot of breakfast – we will car pool for a trip west. At the Ringing Rocks, just east of Butte, there will be a geology lesson by our resident geologist, Judy Bjorkman. Here we will hear the music of ringing rocks and learn how they do that.
A lunch of Butte’s world-famous Pasties will be provided for us. Then those who wish to are free to site-see in the area which was once known as the richest hill on earth. There is lots of history and some interesting markets waiting for us there. Feel free to invite a friend.
Unfortunately, this event was cancelled d/t snowy weather.
Watch for our re-scheduling date and please join us!

St. James “JOY” group hosted……
the Monthly Birthday Party @ Beartooth Manor!
We LOVE to celebrate
Pastor Appreciation Sunday
We said a prayer for you today and know God must have heard.
We felt the answer in our heart although He spoke no word.
We didn't ask for wealth or fame, we knew you wouldn't mind.
We asked Him to send treasurers of a far more lasting kind.
We asked that He'd be near you at the start of each new day.
To grant you health and blessings and friends to share your way.
We asked for happiness for you in all things great and small.
But it was for His loving care of you, we prayed the most of all.
