The original building was completed in the spring of 1881 on Alexander Street to the north west of the present site and was sponsored by Captain James Raymur, the manager of Hastings Mill. This building burned down in the Great Vancouver Fire of 1886. The heat of the fire melted the church bell into a puddle that was eventually put on display at the Museum of Vancouver.
The present and third church building was designed by Adrian Gilbert Scott and is the second to be built at this location on land donated by the Canadian Pacific Railway. Its design is a combination of Art Deco, Romanesque Revival, Byzantine Revival, and Gothic Revival architecture. The walls are made of concrete, while the roof is made of slate. The building was constructed between 1935 and 1937 and consecrated in 1938.
St. James was formed when the first Episcopal services were held in the Newport Harbor area, shortly after World War I. In 1941, the church was founded as a diocesan mission and in 1946 it was officially received as an Episcopal parish. Over the next three decades, the church grew and operated as an average Episcopal church. However, in 1974, the first charismatic Faith Alive service was held at St. James which was part of what is now known as the Convergence Movement. This eventually led to the three-pronged Sunday worship model, consisting of Rite I (traditional worship), Rite II (contemporary worship), and Charismatic, which continues to uniquely characterize St. James today.
James (brother of Jesus), also known as 'the Lord's brother', "the Brother of Jesus' or 'James the Just'; considered the author of the Epistle of James in the New Testament, and the first bishop of Jerusalem
James, son of Zebedee, apostle, brother of John the Apostle, sometimes called "James the Great"

History
Built in 1873 by Calvin L'Hommedieu for the Smithtown and Port Jefferson Railroad in the northern part of the Town of Smithtown, it remains the second-oldest existing station-house of the Long Island Rail Road, surpassed only by Hewlett Station, which was originally built in 1869 by the South Side Railroad of Long Island. When the Flowerfield station to the east was abandoned in 1958, the commuters who previously used that depot at the Gyrodyne Company of America were redirected to the St. James and Stony Brook, New York depots. Until 1964, the station also contained an express house and an outhouse, both of which were demolished along with some trees to make room for an expanded parking lot, much to the chagrin of the community. The station is located within the Saint James District, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.

The Anglican Communion is an international association of independent churches consisting of the Church of England and of national and regional Anglican churches in full communion with it. The status of full communion means, ideally, that there is mutual agreement on essential doctrines and that full participation in the sacramental life of each church is available to all communicant Anglicans.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of All England, has a place of honour among the bishops of the Anglican churches. He is recognized as primus inter pares, or first among equals. The archbishop does not exercise authority in the provinces outside England, but instead acts as a focus of unity.
The churches of the Anglican Communion considers themselves to be part of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church and to be both Catholic and Reformed. For some adherents Anglicanism represents a non-papal Catholicism, for others a form of Protestantism though without a dominant guiding figure such as Luther, Knox, Calvin, Zwingli or Wesley. For others, their self-identity represents some combination of the two. The communion encompasses a wide spectrum of belief and practice including evangelical, liberal and Catholic.
Well, I went down to Old Joe's Barroom Down on the corner by the square They were serving drinks as usual Oh, the usual crowd was there In the corner sat Big Joe McKenzie His eyes were blood shot red And as he turned to address the crowd around him These were the very words that he said: Well I went down to St James Infirmary To see my baby there She was laid out on that long white table So cold, so pale, so fair Let her go, let her go, God bless her Where ever she may be Let her search that whole wide world over Never find a man as sweet as me She'll never find a man as sweet as me When I die, won't you bury me in my high top Stetson hat Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch hand So the gang'll know I died standing pat I want six crapshooters for pallbearers Pretty gals sing me a song I want a jazz band on my hearse wagon To raise Hell as we roll 'long Won't you roll out that rubber tire hack Thirteen men go down to that old graveyard There's only twelve of them men coming back Now that you heard my story Have another shot of the booze Anything anybody should ask I got the St James Infirmary blues
