It is time for another season of praying with and for one another. Sign up to be a prayer partner for another St. Georgian from April 26-May 24. You will receive the name of another person or household to pray for in secret. Someone else will pray for you or your household. The partners will be revealed at the end of the season. You will receive regular reminders to pray and encouragement from clergy. Contact the church office office@stgeorgesepiscopal.net to sign up by April 20.
Meet our new Vestry members Caleb Cherry, Joseph Lyttle, Kathy Maxfield and Elvin Rivera-Orellano. You can read more about them in their bios below.
I feel called to the vestry as a newer member who deeply values our church’s legacy of service and inclusion. I hope to offer a fresh perspective while honoring that tradition, and to serve by devoting my professional and analytical skills to thoughtful contributions and advocacy.
Additionally, I bring these skills to contribute:
Organizational: I excel at planning and working through ambiguity, helping to create clear paths from the unknown to actionable steps.
Risk/Analysis: Solving complex problems and bringing clear analysis to decision-making.Leadership: I practice servant leadership, focusing on supporting others and advocating for all voices as we pursue a shared mission
Ministry Involvement:
I have yet to serve in any leadership/managerial capacity at St. George’s, but if this includes attendance in things outside of regular worship service I have the following:
Fr. Joe’s Discipleship Series
Bible Study “Marc on Mark” in early 2025
Regular attendee of Shrine Mont since joining St. George’s
Professional / Volunteer Experience:
Amazon – Industry Specialist
Olympus – Program Manager
US Army – Intelligence Analyst
Youth Football Coach
Leader and frequent volunteer within Amazon Affinity Groups service / volunteer events
In 2021, St. George’s had a “Spiritual Gifts Workshop” and my top 3 gifts were: Discernment, Teaching and Administration. I also serve as the Executive Director of FAHASS (local nonprofit). My hope is that if I am selected to serve, my gifts and skills would be useful to St. George’s.
I’m just willing to help where I can. I hope I can contribute in a positive and meaningful way.

It’s that time of year again when The Table at St George’s participates in GivingTuesday, a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and you! On Tuesday, December 2, you will have the chance to make a difference in our community by helping to ensure everyone has access to nutritious food and nourishing community! The Table at St. George’s operates every Tuesday in Market Square distributing farm fresh produce alongside gleaned breads, proteins, and snacks free of charge. Truly a place where the friendships formed sustain as much as the produce, this free farmers market has become a staple (and necessity) for the wider community. Support this work by giving this #GivingTuesday!

You can also stop by our Donation Station on December 2 from 10 am – 1 pm in Market Square.

Thank you for your generosity and support!
Hi all! X here, and I’m so happy to have a chance to share my love for the church and our St. George’s family here 🙂 From the moment we stepped on the campus a few years back, we’ve been met with nothing but open arms and kindness, and my family of 5 have felt warmly welcomed from the start. I have never been particularly religious or had strong ties to a church community before, but there’s something about St. George’s that just draws you in and makes you WANT to be more involved.
Originally drawn to the wonderful preschool here which I’m honored to be a board member of now, we’ve since become active church goers again, gotten more involved in the youth group and formation, joined fascinating committees like the History Committee! (shout out to Cindy!), and most especially, started participating in all the incredible ministries St. George’s offers to our community. In fact, in all my years around religion, or any organization for that matter, I have never had so many opportunities to serve!
It has even inspired me to create my own ministry this year, giving out free clothes and essentials to anyone who needs them – no questions asked. In just a handful of months we’ve given away over 25,000 items in conjunction with The Table and our Monday night Community Dinners, and fortunately/unfortunately there’s no sign of it slowing down. It’s been an incredibly fulfilling project to take on, and has gotten me closer to not only those we serve in the area, but to God as well. I literally wake up every single morning and say to God, “I don’t know what you have planned for me today, but I will do my best to be ready for it!” Lol… And of course time and time again I am surprised with how it always comes together in the end 🙂
This has probably been the greatest takeaway so far since coming to St. George’s – trusting, and being more open to the Lord, in the same way I am with loved ones around me. It has taken me a while to get to this point – and I have much more growing to do! – but wow, what a gift that St. George’s offers us every single day: the *opportunity* to grow and learn in a safe and warm environment. We have a truly special community here, and I am beyond proud to be a part of it. Thank you for showing my family so much kindness over the years, and I look forward to seeing you around church!
