St James
Lutheran Church
Endowment Fund
The purpose of the Endowment Fund is to enhance the work of the church by establishing new Christian ministries, outside of the church, to respond to special needs programs within the church which are beyond the operating budget of the church, and to make available scholarships to Christian students.
If you have a vision for a new ministry outside of the congregation; are looking for support for special needs, programs or projects that are within the ministry of the church and funds are not in the church's budgeting process; or if you are a student seeking education for church vocational ministry, you are encouraged to apply for grants to support your efforts.
Grant applications can be downloaded here or picked up in the St James office and in the narthex starting Sunday, May 17, 2026. All applications are due no later than Tuesday, June 23, 2026, at 2pm to the church office or the church office email. Please contact the Endowment Committee if you have any questions.
