Worship at Generations
Posted July 6, 2024 By adminEvery other Sunday St. Jacob’s offers worship with Holy Communion for the residents of Generations Assisted Care of Chapin.
This ministry has made a great difference in the lives of many folks who are not able to attend worship at their home church.
The congregation is invited and certainly encouraged to share this experience with our friends just down the road.
Our next worship opportunities will be on Sunday, July 7th and July 21st at 1:00 PM. Join us in the lobby at Generations.
First Holy Communion
Posted July 4, 2024 By adminChloe, Bella, and Owen completed their first Communion instruction and received their first Holy Communion on June 23. It is a joy to welcome these three young church family members to God’s table of grace where they take their place in receiving their Lord as he comes to us in this Holy Supper. It was a meaningful day in the life of each of these three, and certainly in the life of their church family.

More Youth Group News
Posted June 17, 2024 By adminJust as the Carolinas Mission Region Convocation had an emphasis on Youth Ministry, this edition of our newsletter focuses on the activities of our St. Jacob’s Youth. Our youth are certainly a busy and active bunch. They enjoy providing music for our congregation, engaging in mission events, and leading worship on the last Sunday of those months with a fifth Sunday. Our Youth members will lead worship again on June 30th. Please support our youth members with your prayers and congratulate them by commenting on their dedication and love for the ministry here at St. Jacob’s.
Worship at Generations
Posted June 15, 2024 By adminOur worship services at Generations of Chapin continue to be a welcome time together with our neighbors down the road. St. Jacob’s has several members residing at Generations and several who are on the Generations staff. Residents include Lucy and Stanley Slice, Shirley Nuottila, and Ramonia Lindler and they enjoy having members of their church family present for this time together. Many of the long time residents have also made this a regular part of their faith life, and several of the newest residents have found it to be a welcome time of prayer and worship.
St. Jacob’s offers worship with Holy Communion at Generations every other Sunday. Thank you to regular helpers Tommy Faulk and Angela Nuottila for your ongoing support and participation. Our Youth Hand Bell Choir has also come along to provide music. Of course, we would always enjoy having more members of our church family join us. Please plan to attend and share some time with those who have adopted St. Jacob’s as “their church.” Our worship opportunities for June are on Sundays, June 9 and June 23 at 1:00P.M.
