- By some accounts, the term “breadwinner” has been in the common vernacular for a couple of hundred years and connotes someone who provides sustenance for their family. It is especially evocative in the context of a priest, whom we call “Father” and who literally provides supernatural bread for his children. For attorney turned Catholic priest Fr. James Altman, the responsibility of nourishing his family with the Holy Eucharist is not just a liturgical component of his vocation as a priest; rather, it goes to the very heart of who he is as a human being.
Fr. James Altman is the pastor of St. James the Less Catholic Church in La Crosse, a beautiful church tucked away in a town of roughly 52,000 people on the western border of Wisconsin. Fr. Altman’s homilies, posted online, have gained a nationwide following for their boldness and clarity. Following a successful career as an attorney, Fr. Altman heard the call to the priesthood during Eucharistic Adoration and has now devoted his life to being a faithful shepherd to his congregation. Listening to Fr. Altman speak for any length of time, it is clear that his love for his parish family is authentic and strong, capturing in the best sense the name of “father”.
Be sure to take the time to check out some of Fr. Altman’s homilies online, which can be found on TH-cam and at www.complicitclergy.com.
🍞🍷 WE ARE STARVING FOR FATHER ALTMAN AND THE TRUTH.
Father, now you have thousands of kids instead of 13. God Bless You.
Truly Fr. Altman you are a blessing to the world during these heretical times. You have given me back my faith, and given me strength to trust that the Lord is with me. I’m truly LISTENING to you and am learning so much. Thank you and you are in my constant prayers. Blessed Mary, keep this brave Holy man in you care.
An absolute gift from God to the Catholic Church!
Dear Father Altman your love of Jesus in the most blessed Sacrament is such food for my soul...
Thank you Father! You are blessed! I am blessed! God is good. Thank you for your fearless preaching! What a wonderful time to be alive!
What a beautiful , holy priest! When he was talking about having to leave his parish of 9 years, I was saddened almost to tears. I pray to God that more priests would be like him.

Father Altmans parishioners are blessed oh.... how we need more priests like him, much more, may God bless his priesthood.

Father Altman, May God Bless and protect you. May Blessed Mother Mary protect you and send the Arch Angel to defend you in battle and know that you have an Army of people that will drop everything to come and help you! You are sooo loved and admired for your courageous stand for the truth and your defense of the one holy and Apostolic church. The true faithful Catholics don’t leave. We stay. The bad seeds must go. I said it before and I’ll say it again. GOD CHOSE YOU FOR THIS VERY MISSION. These 6 months have been trying times in the world. I always reflect on the words Jesus, I trust in you.
