Welcome to St James Church, Welland
150 Years at the Crossroads!
We’d like to introduce you to St James Church, a Church of England (Anglican) Church that’s here for the whole community.
We like to think we’re warm, welcoming and working for you!
We run two church services a month, run a community cafe on Fridays,
provide food for those in need with our community larder,
and host the Welland Community Cinema twice a month.
Our 150th Anniversary!
