Jane Newchurch is cast in City Theatre’s world premier of Rod Mechem’s Anna Catherine Iff. It’s the haunting story of a young man adrift, a young woman shrouded in loss, an abandoned house on a forgotten hillside, and the ghost residing there. Shows are February 20 – March 1 at 701 Tillery St. For tickets: info@citytheatreaustin.org.
Melody Fullylove and Bill Newchurch will appear in King Productions’ Texas premiere of Travisville by William Jackson Harper (Chidi Anagonye on NBC’s The Good Place). A Texas city’s black church leaders, white mayor, and citizens have have maintained a wary peace during the 1960’s civil rights movement. But when the mayor partners with a developer to gentrify a neighborhood and uproot its black residents, the minister’s alliance needs to choose between the non-confrontational status quo and standing up for the interests of their community and weathering the risks resistance incurs. Shows are February 28 — March 8 at 2830 Real St.

Thank you St. James’

Due to the increasing number of participants in the Neighbor 2 Neighbor program, we are in need of a second driver to pick up groceries at the Central Texas Food Bank. This is a twice per month commitment on Monday morning. We will have someone available to complete the loading and unloading of the grocery items. Volunteer will need a truck, large SUV or van. If interested, or if you have questions, please contact Ginger Smith at gsmithphotosgs@gmail.com. Thanks so much for considering this opportunity to serve.

The Intercessory Prayer Group has been meeting to pray for the St. James’ community since 1998. We meet on Monday evenings from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. (This time is a change from previous years.) We pray for any concerns of our church community and the extended community, for those on the prayer list, for those in authority over us both in the church and in our daily lives and for national and international needs. If anyone would like to join us, come to the church at 5:30 on Monday evening and we will pray together.
