"As Lent is the time for greater love, listen to Jesus’ thirst…He knows your weakness. He wants only your love, wants only the chance to love you.”

– Blessed Teresa of Calcutta

Lenten Rice Bowl

Our parish will be participating the Lenten Rice Bowl program. Rice bowls will be available in the back of church starting Ash Wednesday and will need to be returned the week after Easter.

We are now accepting Bottle items for the bottle game. Please check the expiration dates on all bottles donated.
With our picnic approaching quickly we will begin taking donations for Bingo prizes. Please contact Laura Allen, Geraldine Heifner, or the Church office if you would like to donate.
The Placemats for the dining room are going to be a little different this year...instead of asking businesses to purchase spots we are going to change it
to a memorial ( In Memory Of) . Anyone can purchase a spot (prices differ). You can add pictures. For more information contact Kim Coleman 314-808-2207.
BAKERS NEEDED! We are in need of homemade pies and cakes for our picnic. Please bring the morning of the picnic on June 1st.

From Fr. Tony Dattilo

I would like to thank the Willet-House Company for the wonderful work they did on our windows at St. James Church. I would like to thank you for our volunteer project and Manager, Don Thompson for all that he did on this project. I thank all the Parishioners and others who donated funds for this project.

The windows are more beautiful than ever. It really brightens up our church. I thank all those who helped and contributed to the project and the Willette Houser Company for their magnificent work.

God bless you all!
Fr. Tony Dattilo
