Something for Everyone

 Hello everyone, I know for many of us the summer holidays have been a busy time with children and grandchildren. I know that for many others of us they've been a quieter time, a lull in the year's activities. Whichever summer has been yours, the new school year is nearly here! The new term is also bringing new and exciting activities at St James.

More Than a Banner

  A Story Woven Through Generations If you were at this year's Gatley Festival Parade, you may well have spotted a colourful banner being carried by members of the St James church family.
