Family Hike through Jockey Hollow October 18th
Please come on a hike with your fellow parishioners and friends to Jockey Hollow, in Morristown.  This is the site where General George Washington's army camped in 1779 - 1780 and survived during the coldest winter on record.  We will meet at the church at 9 and car pool to Morristown; leaving promptly about 9:15 a.m..  Hike should be 3- 5 miles and is appropriate for those able for that distance - probably not little kids. Bring water and a snack; wear appropriate footwear. We will likely have lunch together afterwards if that fits in people's schedules.There is a sign up sheet in the hallway or email vestry@stjamesepiscopal.org   Read more
