Welcome to St. George Church
“Every temple of the Lord is a house of divine Presence and a house of prayer.
Every temple is also a house of peace.
May the soul of all those who enter into this holy temple to take part in the assembly of God,
become itself a house of peace.”
from Serve the Lord With Gladness by A Monk of the Eastern Church
