Upward Basketball
Volunteer sign up: https://registration.upward.org/UPW81451/volunteer

The StJKids Upward League is committed to providing the best sports experience for every child.  Our league is open to all Boys and Girls, in K5 through 3rd Grade & can be best described as a fellowship and educational league - a blending of Sport and Ministry - such that every child plays and is a winner!  We desire to teach the fundamentals of sport to each player and to build balanced teams while ensuring that every participant has a fun, safe and positive experience.

Buddy Program
The Buddy Program at St. James allows a child with special needs to be assisted by an adult or teen in a typical Sunday School classroom. The buddy will assist the child in activities in the classroom, getting around, interacting with their peers, and any other needs they may have. Buddies allow a child with special needs to get the experience of a typical Sunday School classroom by assisting them so they are comfortable and have everything they could need.

To receive a buddy, go to: Receive a Buddy

 To be a buddy to a child, go to: Be A Buddy
 Please fill out the appropriate form and bring it back to St. James or email it to
