PART OF THE WEST WIGHT MISSION COMMUNITY
ST JAMES IS OPEN EACH DAY FOR PERSONAL PRAYER AND FOR VISITORS FROM AROUND 9AM TO 4PM.
St James' Church sits at the heart of the small coastal town of Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight. In the spring and summer months the town welcomes many visitors but still has an active year round community of local residents who value St James' Church and its' role in the local community.
The church is a Grade 2* listed building of historical significance and is one of the 4 Churches and 3 Parishes which make up the West Wight Church Community of FYT Parishes (along with All Saints Church, Freshwater; St Agnes Church, Freshwater Bay and Christ Church in Totland Bay). The FYT Parishes, in turn, sit within the emerging West Wight Mission Community which stretches from Shorwell to Newtown and from Calbourne to Totland Bay.
