Live in the love of Jesus at St. James

You will not find a more welcoming community of faith in Greeneville, TN.

God Loves You. No Exceptions. The Episcopal Church Welcomes You.

The path to becoming a member of St. James is not complicated. We will help you every step of the way. You are invited to become a member of St. James (whether you are new, transferred, confirmed, or received) by being baptized and/or having your previous baptism recorded in our parish records.

It doesn’t matter what church you were baptized in, you are still beloved in the eyes of God. If you have been baptized in another Episcopal Church, please send your previous church a Request for Letter of Transfer. If you prefer, bring the filled-in form to the office, and we can help you with the process. 

Request Transfer

Membership at St. James Episcopal Church brings you into fellowship with all faithful believers worldwide, making you one with Christ’s Body, the Church. It also makes you part of the Episcopal Church and the worldwide Anglican Communion.
