Saint James Church in Lititz, Pennsylvania is a Catholic Church dedicated to maintaining the sanctity of worship and spiritual enlightenment in a family environment that reaches and involves all ages and unifies all people. The Parish of Saint James is very involved in community outreach programs and Parish sponsored organizations are many including a bereavement group, a benevolent fund, a Legion of Mary, a men's club, and Silver Liners.
Saint James has three main community outreach programs, each offering assistance to a different sect of the community. Landings is a meeting of those who may have strayed away from Catholicism or never had been a part of it before who are looking to take a closer or second look at the religion and explore their faith. The meetings are open and supportive. Natural Family Planning programs are provided to promote fertility awareness to women of the community. The Social Justice Network serves to help those in need within and beyond the community, specifically those who are homeless, sick, lonely, hungry, or in need of defense. Catechetical training and adult study are offered throughout the year for adults to further their understanding of their faith, and weekly religious education classes are held for children preschool through grade eight.
Saint James Youth Ministry contributes their time and service constantly both the the community and beyond. The Youth Ministry offers their service for everything from cleaning and painting rundown places to making Fourth of July cards for troops overseas to making the Annual Diocesan-Wide Pilgrimage for World Peace through Conversion of Heart and babysitting children of the Parish while parents get a Parish wide date night.
