Hispanic and Latina/o/x Heritage Month is September 15-October 15. As we celebrate the variety of cultural heritages at St. George’s, we will include some Spanish language prayers and hymns in our Sunday worship over the next few weeks.
Join us this Sunday, October 4, after the 10 am service as we have a special potluck coffee hour featuring foods and stories that some of our members will bring from their cultures.
You’re invited to attend a St. Francis Pet Blessing + Open House with our UMW campus ministries (The House + The CCC in partnership) on Sunday, October 4th from 2-4 pm. Stop by The House at 820 College Ave and bring a pet, a picture of a pet, or a stuffed animal to be blessed by one of our pastors. You can also come by without a pet, and just hang out! It’s a great opportunity to see one of our campus ministry buildings and meet our students and student leaders! There’s plenty of parking on the street, as well as in the Trinity lot across the street. We will have snacks, drinks, and fellowship for humans! With questions, or if you’d like to bring something to share, please be in touch with Fr. Ethan, our campus minister.
You are invited this Sunday, September 27 to a special children and youth led worship service at 10 am. During the service children and youth will play active roles as greeters, ushers, readers and preachers. Our Children’s Choir will also be leading the service in song. If your child would like to be assigned a part, please contact Rev. Paige.
Instead of our normal Sunday School, all children and youth formation classes will meet in the Nave at 9 am to practice and assign any last minute roles. There are plenty of jobs left to fill, so feel free to just show up that morning ready to serve. All children and youth are welcome to participate. It is sure to be a joy filled service for all ages.
We have two upcoming occasions for Holy Baptism: All Saints Day, Sunday, November 1 and the commemoration of the Baptism of Jesus on January 10. Anyone interested in exploring baptism for themselves or for a child should contact the church office (office@stgeorgesepiscopal.net) and/or fill out a baptism inquiry form. There is a preparation process for adult and older child/youth baptism candidates as well as for parent (or other adult sponsors) of infant/child/youth candidates. Candidates for both upcoming dates will prepare together. Notify the office as soon as possible (no later than September 27) in order to allow enough time for preparation.
We are excited to usher in our 2026-2027 Children’s Choir season at St. George’s!
Our first rehearsal will be on September 13 at 3 pm in the choir room (accessible through our graveyard door). Children’s choir and chimes will rehearse from 3 – 4:30 pm on Sunday afternoons. We are still working on finalizing our rehearsal and performance schedule. Please invite your friends to come make music with us at St. George’s! We will send out more information as we approach our September 13 start date. In the meantime, email Juliann Jones to sign up.
