Photos of Saint James Church, in Catawissa, Missouri

HERE ARE PHOTOS of Saint James Church, in Catawissa, Missouri. The church is located in rural in Franklin County, about 41 highway miles southwest of downtown Saint Louis.


Here are two older photos of the church. The following photos were taken on October 14^th, 2007, during the parish's fall festival.



This church was dedicated in 1913, and has undergone extensive renovation within the past year. A visitor told me that the statuary seen here was lately obtained from Transfiguration Parish in Florissant, Missouri, which closed in 2005.









On a pillar next to the presider's chair is a Sacramentary, which contains the parts of the Mass said by the priest.



Colorful red berries decorate the altar.









Jesus is taken down from the cross.



Windows in this church are simple — but not ordinary.



Stained glass on the main door.



Confessional.
