About Us
We are a small friendly parish and celebrate traditional
catholic worship using the 1928 Book of Common
Prayer. Our Anglican Catholic beliefs are based on the teachings of the
Bible and the ancient creeds of the Church. The center of our liturgical
worship is the Holy Eucharist. By the readings, prayers and very
sacrament itself, we learn about God, ourselves and our relationships to
one another. Join us to gain that peace which the world cannot give: the
peace of God, which passes all understanding.
A Prayer for the Anglican Church of St. George
O Almighty God, who didst give to thy servant George boldness to confess
the Name of our Savior Jesus Christ before the rulers of this world, and
courage to die for this faith: Grant that we may always be ready to give
a reason for the hope that is in us, and to suffer gladly for the sake
of the same our Lord Jesus Christ; who liveth and reigneth with thee and
the Holy Ghost, one God, forever and ever. Amen
About the Saint named George
from a Wikipedia article
"In Christian hagiography Saint George - The Saint who killed the Dragon (ca. 275-281–April 23, 303) was a soldier of the Roman Empire, from the then Greek-speaking Anatolia, now modern day Turkey, who was venerated as a Christian martyr. Saint George is one of the most venerated saints in the Eastern Orthodox Church and Oriental Orthodox Churches. Immortalized in the tale of George and the Dragon, he is one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers and is the patron saint of Aragón, Canada, Catalonia, England, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Montenegro, Portugal, Serbia, Russia, and Palestine, as well as the cities of Beirut, Ljubljana, Freiburg and Moscow, as well as a wide range of professions, organizations and disease sufferers."
