Faith Formation at Home

Raising children in the Christian faith doesn't just happen on Sunday mornings. Research has shown time and time again that the primary faith teachers for children are their parents and guardians. Here are some resources for integrating faith formation into your family's life outside of St. James. Our Sunday School teachers and Rev. Rowan can give you more ideas if you are interested! 
Building Faith from Virginia Theological Seminary is an excellent blog and resource section to help parents and teachers grow faithful children.

Doing Good Together is a national non-profit that helps connect parents to resources and ideas for raising kids who know the importance of giving back to their community. 
The United Thank Offering has many resources for parents and children to learn about gratitude and practice it together.

Adult Formation

Deepening faith at all ages

At St. James, we know that growing in faith doesn't end when you age out of Sunday School. We support several ongoing formation opportunities for adults, including a weekly Men's Bible Study (Tuesdays at 7 am at the IHOP on 19th) and are looking forward to hosting the Bozeman Women's Ecumenical Bible (and Book) study (known as WEBS) on Mondays this fall at St. James. Please RSVP to Rev. Valerie Webster to get on the mailing list for session emails and Zoom link if you need it.

This fall, we will be offering a 9 week series on "Studying and Praying with the Bible" after worship on Sundays from 11-11:30 am.  Come as you are--no preparation required. September 8, 15, 29; October 13, 20, 27; November 3, 10.
