Bahasa: Dalam Gereja Katolik Roma, Pesta Santo Filipus dan Yakobus dirayakan pada 3 Mei. Kedua-dua rasul ini berkongsi hari pesta kerana relik mereka disemayamkan bersama di Basilika Para Rasul Kudus (Santi Apostoli) di Roma pada abad ke-6. Filipus diingati kerana memohon kepada Yesus untuk "menunjukkan Bapa kepada kami" (Yohanes 14:8), di mana Yesus menyatakan Diri-Nya sebagai gambaran Bapa. Yakobus (Muda) melambangkan gembala awal Gereja di Yerusalem. Pesta ini menekankan asas kerasulan Gereja Katolik, penggantian kerasulan (apostolic succession), dan kesetiaan mutlak kepada Kristus sehingga mati syahid.

English: In the Roman Catholic Church, the Feast of Saints Philip and James is celebrated on May 3. The two apostles share a feast day because their relics were enshrined together in the Basilica of the Holy Apostles in Rome during the 6th century. Philip is remembered for asking Jesus to "show us the Father" (John 14:8), to which Jesus revealed Himself as the image of the Father. James (the Less) represents the early shepherd of the Jerusalem church. The feast emphasizes the apostolic foundation of the Catholic Church, apostolic succession, and total devotion to Christ unto martyrdom.
