Join Our Parish
Welcome to the Saint James Parish Family!
As a new member of our faith community we encourage you to complete a new member packet which you can print from the website or pick up in the parish office. In addition, we expect you to participate regularly in the liturgical life of the parish and support our mission through an annual stewardship commitment of time, talent and treasure.
The parish newcomers committee hosts a welcome luncheon three or four times each year and is eager to welcome your family to our parish. Once your membership paperwork is completed and returned to the parish office, the newcomers committee will put your family on the invitation list for the next welcome lunch.
Mission
“As God’s pilgrim people on earth, we are led by the Holy Spirit to serve Christ and His Holy Catholic Church.”
We Seek a More Excellent Way (1 Cor. 12: 31) by
- Exalting God through the Sacraments and Mass with special attention to preaching and music.
- Evangelizing by sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ and making disciples of all.
- Enriching the formation of our Catholic faith in children, youth, adults and families.
- Educating children and youth through our progressively academic, traditionally Catholic school.
- Expressing faith in God, love for Christ and trust in the Holy Spirit through Stewardship as a way of life.
- Expanding our mission and ministries while honoring our past and building our future.
Our Goal…To see the face of God in heaven
