This past Sunday, Saint James' celebrated our "Patronal Feast Day" with an amazing meal of roasted pig, black beans & rice, plantains two ways and cassava, all lovingly procured and prepared by our very own Peter Suarez! Parishioners provided breads, salads and desserts. No one went away hungry!

We Won!

The 2026 Polk County's Coolest Church Building (church building category) goes to St. James' Episcopal Church.

St. James' was built in the 1880s and is older than Joe Biden. Such a beautiful Cedartown landmark.
