Paso Robles sits in the middle of beautiful wine country along the Central Coast.  With easy access to the coast, it is a charming place that boasts locals and tourists. St. James plays an important role in the town, as it is a progressive voice and a safe place where all are welcome.  St. James does not require a bilingual priest, as many members are bilingual and are confident they can fill the language needs.

The parish is healthy, active and vibrant, willing to adapt and live into their ongoing calling to serve their neighbor. Type of Commitment Full Time Does this job pay? Yes Application Process Submit CV, Transition Ministry Portfolio and Cover Letter to:
