May we, the People of Saint James Parish, embody the sentiment of the Apostle James in our love of God and service to our neighbors. Continuing the ministry of Jesus Christ, we dedicate ourselves to the threefold mission of worship, proclamation of the Good News, and service to our brothers and sisters. To live as witnesses to God's presence in the world, we strive to:
Worship
With the central focus on the Eucharistic celebration, the sacramental life of the parish helps to build up and strengthen our community of faith.
Proclaim
Through educational programs, we continue faith formation for children, youth, and families. We strive to show our concern for the ongoing spiritual development of young adults and seniors. With the compassion of Jesus, we reach out to the inactive, alienated, and unchurched.
Serve
As we extend ourselves for the sake of God's kingdom, we work to meet both the spiritual and material needs of all in our parish, the wider community and the world.
