This committee is advisory to educational administrators and the Pastoral team. The programs they oversee include sacramental preparation, adult and family ministry, youth and child ministry.

Prayer and Worship

This commission is the heart of parish life at St. James, inviting us to be a people of praise and prayer in all we do. Our lives then become the gift we bring to our Sunday Eucharistic Celebration. It is here, as a gathered community, that our lives become a gift to God.

Human Concerns

This commission discerns the need of parishioners in the community, especially the poor, and identifies resources to meet those needs by enlisting the active cooperation of parish members.

Stewardship

Pastoral Health Care Ministry

This Ministry responds to the holistic (body, mind, and spirit) needs of our parishioners. It includes visits to the sick and homebound.

Building and Grounds

This commission oversees and makes recommendations for repairs, upkeep and improvements to the facilities and properties of the parish.
