Our Mission

“We rejoice in a diverse and international parish family, and serve Italian and English speakers from many denominations, backgrounds, and cultures.”

On behalf of our congregation, and as the Rector of St. James, I am delighted to welcome you and extend an invitation to visit us on Sunday. St. James is a diverse and inclusive community ministering in English and Italian for more than a century. No matter who you are, no matter where you’re from, you have a home in Florence with us.

– The Reverend Richard B. Easterling
