The Congregation of St. James United Church is located in the heart of the town of Antigonish at the corner of Main Street and Church Street. Established in 1804, the church has been a part of the changes which have taken place in the town, the province, and the country over the past two hundred years.


Our Vision as a Congregation


With the words of Jesus as our mission we have a vision of being partners in a shared community based on that love. In this community we will seek to provide a place that is inclusive and accepting of others. As travelers in this intentional faith journey we will study and teach Christ's message of love. We visualize being spiritual seekers and doers, purposefully engaged in practices of listening to God's Spirit, communicating with each other, praying, showing hospitality, living social justice and bringing healing to the brokenness of our community.

We vision being a presence with and for all in the Church
and the community. We will reach out in love.
We will celebrate God's love and joy in worship in many forms. We will keep an open mind and a devout spirit and 
we will take up the cross and follow Jesus Christ.
