Hi, my name is David Joyner came to St. James in the summer of 2020 when I moved to the Wilmington area after law school. I grew up in eastern North Carolina outside of Goldsboro. I went to UNC Chapel Hill for undergrad and worked for the United Methodist Church’s public policy agency in Washington, DC before returning to NC and attending Campell University’s School of Law. I worked as a criminal prosecutor before recently joining the Lea/Schultz Law Firm as a litigator. I am an avid amateur chef and excited about Outreach ministries like Meals on Wheels and St. James’ budding relationship with the Northside Food Co-Op.
Hi my name is Taber Stockstill-Tornes! I was born and raised in Oklahoma, just outside of Oklahoma City. I went to the University of Oklahoma where I got a degree in Human Relations. Fiddled around in OKC a bit, backpacked in Europe a bit, then met my husband, Kevin. We lived in Chicago from 2016-2020. There I became a doula, something I’m very passionate about. Long story short, we moved to Wilmington in September 2020 and had a little boy, Howie, in October 2021! If you want the long story, please come say hi! We love getting to know knew people. I’m so excited to be at St. James!

When someone you love dies, you experience grief in a number of ways and one size does not fit all. The way we react to and process grief depends on the relationship, manner of death, if and how you were able to say goodbye, your beliefs, your background, and your personality.
We also grieve many things other than death and we want to acknowledge this also. There is grief that comes from loss of a health, loss of a job, sending a child off to school, losses that come from divorce, to mention a few.
Please reach out to the Rev. Cheryl Brainard at [email protected] for more information.

Sundays - Indoors & Outdoors at Mt. Lebanon Chapel & Downtown
We extend a sincere welcome to you and we hope you will come and find your place at St. James. We have long been an active, working church with parishioners who play a vital role in parish ministries and community life. The range of St. James' ministries is as broad as the interests of its members.
Christian Formation for children endeavors to support and supplement the family's efforts to raise children as followers of Christ. Children's Formation includes Sunday classes as well as seasonal festivals and intergenerational events. Preschool ages 2 to 5 years, and grades 1 through 5 use a lectionary-based curriculum enhanced with art and music. Middle school classes include confirmation preparation and current event issues. Senior high classes engage in weekly Bible study from a young person's perspective.

Membership at St. James, as with any other Episcopal parish, is governed by Canonical requirements of the Episcopal Church.
