The Sturgis Journal is a daily newspaper published in Sturgis, Michigan, United States. It is owned by GateHouse Media, who acquired it from Independent Media Group in 2000.[1][2]

The Journal covers Sturgis and other St. Joseph County communities such as Burr Oak, Centreville, Colon, Constantine, Mendon, Three Rivers and White Pigeon.

The newspaper bills itself as the oldest business in the city of Sturgis.[3] It began as a weekly newspaper, The Sturgis Journal, on July 4, 1861, later known as the Sturgis Journal-Times.[4] It switched to daily publication under the name Sturgis Daily Journal in 1916. The words "the" and "daily" were dropped in 1946.[5]
