St. James Episcopal Church is a historic Episcopal church in Greeneville, Tennessee. The St. James congregation was organized in 1842 as the "Greeneville Parish, Greene County," by a small group of faithful Episcopalians who gathered for worship at the Greene County Courthouse. They were admitted to the 1848 Convention of the Episcopal Diocese of Tennessee, and subsequently were approved as a formal parish at the diocesan convention in July 1849. The parish constructed its present church building in 1850, modified it in 1894, and further enlarged the structure in 1951. It is said to be one of Tennessee’s oldest unaltered churches. Between 1852 to 1901, Saint James experienced great turmoil, having to close its doors for 18 months during 1873 to 1875. During this period Saint James lapsed into mission status and did not regain its standing as a parish until 1957. ==Clergy== *1850–52 The Rev. William H. Good *1852–54 The Rev. W. P.
