St James Church has links with a wide range of mission partners, both locally in theTaunton area and further afield.
We are also part of the Diocese of Bath and Wells, so have partnerships there too.
Our Local and Overseas Mission Partners
As a church, we support each of our partners in three ways:
* we provide them with regular financial support. Some of our church members also make donations to them regularly.
* we pray for them in their work, and spotlight one of them each month in a morning service.
* many of our members volunteer in these organisations, in a variety of roles.
Here are links to summary descriptions about each of our partners – just click on the logos. From these pages you can follow further links to their websites or newsletters, and to short videos on our YouTube channel of the annual presentations made to our congregation.
