St. James Lutheran Church and School is a religious institution based in Chicago, Illinois. The campus comprises two buildings—the church at 2050 North Fremont Street and the school at 2101 North Fremont Street, located at the corner of Fremont and Dickens. Founded in 1869, the organization operates both a congregational community and an educational program serving children from preschool through eighth grade; the school is noted as Chicago's oldest continuously operating school. Together, the church and school emphasize the development of students' intellectual, social, and emotional growth within a Christian framework, while serving a small to mid-sized community. In 2025, the institutions partnered with Habitat for Humanity to help replace a home that had been taken from a father, reflecting ongoing community outreach.
