The Fauquier Community Coalition’s Firewood Initiative provides firewood to local residents identified by the Department of Social Services who need firewood to keep their homes warm during the winter. Volunteers from several churches gather each week at the Warrenton Baptist Church property behind Brumfield Elementary School to split and stack wood for delivery to almost 60 individuals and families.

This is where you come in. We’ve committed to providing volunteers from Saint James’ on the second Saturday of each month. The time commitment is about two hours, and all adults and teenagers are welcome to volunteer.

Email Judy Williams at jwilliams0721@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Could this be your calling?

Chalice bearers fill a unique role with their presence and assistance to the priest. Being part of the worship team is an honor.

As the fall approaches, it’s an appropriate time to refresh all the logistics involved in this ministry. It’s also a perfect time to invite those in the congregation who might be interested in joining this ministry.

This refresher session shouldn't last more than an hour. It will be held in the sanctuary. A complimentary light lunch will be served afterward.
