Our Vision

Beyond 28 is a vision to prepare St. James the Greater Catholic Church to embrace all beyond the year 2028, when the parish church will complete 100 years of ministering in the Dogtown neighborhood. We differ but reconcile; we overlook but restore; we remain but reach out!

Our Mission

As parishioners of St. James the Greater Catholic Church, we strive to follow Jesus Christ as St. James did, boldly sharing God's love, starting with our family, community, and reaching out to the ends of the earth.

Our Stewardship

Time, Talent, Treasure, Heart, Mind, and Muscle!

Our Prayer

Jesus, you are the source of our growth and prosperity.  We, the parish family at St. James the Greater, thank you for your faithfulness in  continuing to build us into a Eucharistic community.  As we lift up our eyes to see our future, God our loving and gracious father,  make us good stewards of our parish, and help us to follow you as disciples.  Anoint us with your wisdom to see your plans, empower us with your knowledge, to discern your will, fill us with your grace to accept one another.  Holy Spirit, you moved St. Patrick to reach out to the nations, inspire us with your zeal to reach out to all around us.  St. James pray for us.  St. Joseph pray for us.  Mary Most Holy intercede for us.  Amen.
