Celebrating 225 Years Young – History of St. George’s
“Lift up your hands in the Holy place and bless the Lord.” (Psalm 134)
In 2017, we celebrate our 225th Anniversary. St. George’s is the oldest faith community in the city of St. Catharines, founded in 1792.
For all anniversary details, see our Anniversary Brochure
Jesus
In Jesus we see who God is and what God cares about. We follow Jesus in order to draw closer to God and to better serve the world.
The Bible
We explore how these ancient stories become alive and meaningful, and a source of God’s guidance, to us here today.
The Anglican Church
The Anglican Communion is worldwide. It is known as “the middle way” – tracing its roots back to the earliest followers of Jesus and the ancient church, but with a modern-day charism of an “Open Mind” to the new thing God is doing in us and in our world.
Worship
We offer different styles of worship throughout the week, from the very modern café setting of our Wednesday nights, to the quiet contemplation of Sundays at 8am and the beautiful family service with choral music and pipe organ at 10am.
Music
Music has always been a way for people to connect more deeply with God. Music lifts our spirits and brings us into communion with one another. We offer music programs for people of all ages. Our worship services offer a wide variety of musical expressions, allowing us to pray more fully!
Serving
Our goal as Christians is to “seek and serve Christ in all persons.” We are engaged in meaningful service with those most vulnerable in our community and in our world. Find your life changed by learning to live for the sake of others.

It is a Sin to Complain about the Weather
by Martha Tatarnic on June 24, 2019 at 3:06 pm
Image via John D Sirlin / ShutterstockI have taken on a new spiritual discipline: I am trying not to complain about the weather. As you might imagine, this is very difficult, mostly because of how anti-social it feels. Everyone complains about the weather. It leads most of our small talk, and aside from a few sunny and moderately warm days that southern Ontario sees outside of the extremes of heat or cold that dominate, most of our commentary on the weather is negative. It’s too hot. […]
