Nov. 11 update on the Annual Pledge Campaign

We’re almost there.

The Vestry and all of us at Saint James’ are immensely grateful to the 120 households who have pledged their giving as part of the 2026 Annual Pledge Campaign, including the 18 households who pledged for the first time.

Your faithful commitment to sustaining Saint James’ next year means the Vestry can discern how best to use our collective resources to maintain our building, keep our staffing at current levels and expand our ministry to our congregation and to the Warrenton community in 2026. This wouldn’t be possible without your pledges.

As of this week, we’re about $30,000 short of our $715,000 goal, and 17 households short of our goal of 137. Even though the pledge campaign formally ended Nov. 2, it is still helpful to pledge your financial support for 2026 if you haven’t already. This takes the guesswork out of finalizing the church budget and will help the Vestry use our resources all the more wisely.
