WELCOME
Welcome to the St. James Orthodox Mission Church of Dallas Website! We are a fellowship of Orthodox Christians of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian tradition, who worship primarily in English. Our members are committed to humbly serving Christ by upholding the sacraments of the Church, growing in wisdom through prayer and studying the teachings of the Scriptures. As a Mission parish, our goal is to serve our brothers and sisters in our community through acts of charity.
We humbly ask that you keep St. James in your prayers as we continue to grow as an integral place of worship for the English-speaking community and as a charity that provides for the less fortunate. If you would like to provide financial support to help us with our charitable committments or operational expenses, please use the Tithe.ly donate button below. St. James is deeply appreciative of any sum, no matter how large or small.
