Who we are
Welcome to the Catholic Churches in Vernon and Area!
Our Spiritual Community is made up of Five parishes all praising & worshipping God our Father. Father Dale Normandeau is the Priest that Serves St. James in Vernon and Our Lady of the Valley Parish in Coldstream. Father Vincent Asomugha serves Sacred Heart Parish in Lumby, as well as St Benedict's and St Theresa's on Westside Road. All five parishes are part of the main diocese of The Roman Catholic Diocese of Kamloops.
At St. James and Our Lady of the Valley Parishes you will find Knights of Columbus Council's as well as Catholic Womens League Chapters. Both groups are very active and always welcome new members. There is also ample opportunity to be involved in our many Ministry services such as Lectors, Musicians, Altar servers and Ministers of Holy Communion to name a few. We are also fortunate to have our own Catholic School here in Vernon.
Welcome again, please join us in Praise and Thanksgiving.

St. James Church History
Â
Lord, teach me to listen.
The times are noisy and my ears are weary with the thousand raucous sounds which continuously assault them. Give me the spirit of the boy Samuel when he said to Thee, "Speak, for Thy servant heareth." Let me hear Thee speaking in my heart. Let me get used to the sound of Thy voice, that its tones may be familiar when the sounds of earth die away and the only sound will be the music of Thy speaking. Amen.
