About St. James the Greater Catholic Church

St. James the Greater is a Catholic parish serving the Dogtown and South Side communities of St. Louis. It operates as a spiritually unified community with Epiphany of Our Lord—sharing a pastor and staff while remaining canonically separate. The parishes emphasize companionship on a shared faith journey, inspired by the pilgrimage tradition of the Camino de Santiago. Both parishes offer daily and Sunday Mass, confession, eucharistic adoration, and community service opportunities.
