Yours is the day, O God, yours also the night; you established the moon and the sun. You fixed all the boundaries of the earth; you made both summer and winter. Psalm 74:15,16

I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel; my heart teaches me, night after night. I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not fall. Psalm 16:7,8

Daily prayers are said on a regular schedule at Saint James. On Wednesday evenings, we invite you to explore and celebrate the inspiring lives of the saints at our Evening Prayer service. Join us each week as we remember some of the people who shaped the Church through the centuries using readings, scripture, prayers and music! We use liturgy from Common Worship: Daily Prayer and the commemorations are from Lesser Feasts and Fasts, 2018. Invite a friend!

Evening Compline
via Zoom
Click here to join Compline. (This link can be used for every evening Compline on Zoom.)

The short service of Compline is based on the closing time of prayer in the Daily Office, or monastic cycle of prayer. It is observed in monasteries around 8 or 9 PM when darkness has fallen and bedtime is near.

The thoughts that inspire the prayers during Compline are the need for divine forgiveness and protection against the powers of darkness. Prayers for peace and rest are offered as night falls.

People of all faiths and beliefs are invited to this contemplative service. The service lasts about 20 minutes.

Children's Chapel
2027-09-05 10:30 | Saint James Episcopal Church, 103 North Duke Street, Lancaster, PA, 17602, United States
Children’s Chapel* meets weekly during the 10:30 AM Sunday Mass. Children and youth ages 3 and above begin the morning in the sanctuary where they can experience the processional and the opening congregational prayers.
After the opening Collect, children are invited to the front of the sanctuary to make their way to the chapel and participate in songs, prayers, brief meditation and storytelling of the day’s Gospel and/or New and Old Testament readings.
The Godly Play® teaching method includes using beautiful wooden figures, candles, and symbolic colors to aid our storytelling as we listen to God’s word for us. Children often respond to the story using simple art supplies including crayons, construction paper, origami paper and Model Magic air dry clay.
Children return to the Sanctuary during the passing of the Peace. They are welcome to take part in Holy Communion.
