A pledge or donation mailed to the Church is most meaningful when accompanied by your presence, by your willingness to serve, by your prayers and by your commitment

    "The rich man is not one who has much, but one who gives much.

     For what he gives away remains his forever" St. John Chrysostom

May our Lord's great sacrifice and many blessings be examples as He asks us to look out for one another and our beloved St. George Greek Orthodox Church
