Photo Gallery: Saint James Church (closing its doors after 302 years)
By Mark A. Leon
On Sunday, November 20th, the Saint James Church on Camp Road (James Island) will host its final service at this location after 302 years.
Founded in 1720, this church has served the local community with open arms as well as the final resting place for prominent forefathers and foremothers of the Lowcountry.
On the dawn of the emotional final service, we wanted to share a photo journey and pay homage to the Saint James Church (1872 Camp Road).
The church will resume next month with a different denomination
