St. James, it's the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus AND the World Day of Prayer for the Sanctification of Priests. But why celebrate both in one day? Watch our video to learn more.

In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus tells the crowds that the one who eats His Body and drinks His Blood will live forever.
⁣
That promise is not symbolic comfort. It is the gift of Himself, given to nourish us, strengthen us, and draw us into eternal life.
⁣
The Eucharist is the heart of who we are as Catholics. This week, ask yourself: who could you invite to come to Mass with you and receive this gift?
⁣
We’ll see you Sunday!

O Precious Jesus,
The gift of your Body and Blood, shared with us, is unfathomable.
Like manna that satiated our hunger, fill us where we lack.
Like the bread given to Elijah in the desert, sustain us.
Grace us with a glimpse into your love for us,
now and forever, present in the Eucharist.
Amen.

Today, St. James joins the universal Church in celebrating the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, meditating on the great gift of the Eucharist that Jesus has left us. It is the food that truly nourishes us for our journey toward heaven.

Today, we celebrate Saint Charles Lwanga and his companions, whose fearless faith and love for Christ continue to inspire the Church today! 🙌 Their courage reminds us that God calls each of us to boldly live out our faith and share His love with others using the gifts He has given us.
Here are a few ways we can live that out daily:
🤍 Receive God’s gifts with gratitude
🤍 Serve others with love and joy
🤍 Share the Gospel with courage
🤍 Live with hope and trust in God
⁣
How is God calling YOU to shine His light today? ✨
May we continue to use our time, talents, and blessings to reflect His love wherever we go!

The Office of Deaf Services invited Father Bill Keyes from Milwaukee to celebrate Mass and Reconciliation in American Sign Language with help from a generous donor.
⁣
Father Bill is one of only a few priests in the country fluent in ASL, but thanks to this same donor, the deaf community in the Archdiocese of Atlanta will soon receive even more sacramental and pastoral support!

At his trial before the Roman prefect Rusticus, St. Justin debated with great skill and eloquence. But his most perfect witness was the shedding of his blood, in imitation of his Lord and for the benefit of the Church, including us here today at St. James.

Think of the best father-son relationship you know of. Think of the love and even shared sense of identity that defines it. Then take that idea and multiply it by infinity. Whatever result you have, it still falls utterly and entirely short of the relationship between God the Father and God the Son. Because as Jesus says, He and the Father truly are "one"-one God, even while being distinct persons.
⁣
Why does this matter? Because today, on Trinity Sunday, we reflect not only on the nature of God, but also his Trinitarian action in human history. Especially the sending of the Son by the Father.
⁣
Take a moment today to ponder how utterly incredible this mystery is. Because Jesus is fully human, we sometimes lose sight of his divinity. But he is God indeed. And restating his saving mission in these terms can be helpful: God became man; God endured torture and humiliation on our behalf; God was crucified; and God died. Not in his essence, but in the human nature that truly belonged to the Son.
⁣
God truly suffered for us. And what's more, he didn't need to. At all. Because he needs us for nothing. But he loves us. Fiercely and fully. And on Trinity Sunday, we ponder this mystery anew and ask how here at St. James we can carry that same mission of divine love into the world.
