Who We Are

The Children’s Mission of St. Paul & St. James

Founded in 1995 as a ministry of the Episcopal Church of St. Paul and St. James, the Children's Mission reaches out to city children and their families with hope and help. In our varied programs we seek to enrich children's lives through books and stories, art and music, liturgical worship, cooperative learning, loving adult attention, and table fellowship, and to make available to them and their families the parish's resources of faith, celebration, pastoral care, support and love.

We offer four major programs to city children, focusing on ages 3-10:

	Mustardseed Club: a secular story hour that meets in the sanctuary during the Saturday Loaves and Fishes food pantry
	Light andPeace: a simple Compline (evening worship) service for children followed by craft time and supper
	Light and Peace Summer Program: three week afternoon summer program of friendship, crafts, singing, games, stories, worship and food
	Mustardseed Afternoon Club: an after-school enrichment program providing academic enrichment in a safe and structured environment five days a week
