Who we are
Parkhill is located northwest of London, Ontario. Regular Anglican services began in 1869 and were conducted by a theological student in a wooden structure. The present building was erected in 1874 using local yellow brick. During its construction, a violent windstorm arose and carried away the roof rafters.
The Parish Hall and the belltower were built around 1914. On Sunday, December 29, 1914, the Right Reverend David Williams, fourth Bishop of Huron, was present at St. James Church and dedicated the tower and bell, the parish hall, the pulpit, lectern, the choir stalls (which had been made and installed by the rector, the Rev. C.M. Farney), and the beautiful, large window at the back of the church, depicting St. Peter holding the keys to the Kingdom, a gift from the Guild, the Sunday School, and the A.Y.P.A.
St. James Anglican Church is one of the very few churches to retain all the original brasswork and stained glass windows from this period. When it was decided to install electricity, this task was passed to the Ladies' Guild, which was formed around 1900. They continue today to be a strong presence in the spiritual and financial well-being of the church.
Many of the present congregration are second and third generation stewards, and tend to retain their service roles in the church for a number of decades. The spirit of faithfulness that was present in those who were the first members has continued unto the present time. The prosperity of the church has followed very closely to that of Parkhill and the surrounding area.

St. James sends a large number of bales containing good warm washable clothing to the northern parishes each May, a practice that originated decades ago with the old Missionary Society. We also supply cookies and treats to the local nursing homes as well as visits and spiritual services. St. James also supports a number of outreach programs: the local food bank, the Huron Hunger Fund, St. Monica House in Kitchener, and Sleeping Children Around The World. Â
