St. James is a lovely church in the 1950's style. The whole church was moved to this location from abroad. The meeting hall is new and modern. Parking is accessable. The best features of this church include the wood work in the church and the lovely biblical gardens on the property.

This is my local church so I am naturally biased. It is a beautiful white wooden church that was originally designed to be mobile and is now in cultivated gardens called the Peace Gardens. Sunday Services are at 1030 and families are very welcome. There is a hall on the side available for hire and the whole church and the hall is accessible as are the toilets. Highly recommend this church to get married, baptised, etc.
