St. James the Greater Catholic Church in Eau Claire, WI, has a rich history that began with its first Mass held on November 11, 1948, inside a quaint white house nestled at the intersection of 11th and Marshall Streets. The community's commitment to growth and progress swiftly led to the establishment of the school in 1950, and over the years, various expansions took place. The office and rectory were added in 1955, with the Church itself gracing the grounds in 1960, solidifying the church's presence as a cornerstone of faith in the area.

Continuing the tradition of generosity and community spirit, the Knights of Columbus generously gifted a multi-purpose building to the parish in 1992, further enhancing the church's ability to serve its members. Significant milestones such as the Golden Jubilee celebration on the feast of St. James in 1999 and the dedication of the new Gathering Space and elevator addition by Bishop Jerome Listeki in 2006 mark pivotal moments in the church's ongoing journey of faith, fellowship, and service to the Eau Claire community.
