Sunday 8:30 a.m. & 10:30 a.m.

8:30 a.m. Said Eucharist

This simple service is straight out of the Book of Alternative Services, without the ceremony of the 10:30 service.  Offered in-person only.

10:30 a.m. Choral Service

This is the main gathering for the St. George’s community. It is a choral celebration of High Mass, rich in ceremonial and beautiful music on the pipe organ and piano. The choir, led by Music Director Ran Kim, leads the congregation in singing hymns and choral music written by a wide range of composers, including John Merbecke, Healey Willan, and our Organist Emeritus, Karen Rymal.

Nursery care and Children’s Ministry are offered during this celebration.  This service is offered in-person and livestreamed.

Following the service, all attendees are invited downstairs to Luxton Hall for refreshments and fellowship.

Summer Services – 9:30 a.m.

During the summer months, we offer one service on Sunday mornings at 9:30 a.m.  This service is usually shorter, with a simplified liturgy and Eucharist, with music led by a cantor.  For 2024, our summer services will run from June 16 through to September 1.

We Are One and We Are Called to Action - A Message from Fr. Michelle

A Message from Fr. Michelle to the Parish of St. George's on-the-Hill. On Corpus Christi, Fr. Michelle reflected on the Body of Jesus and called us to action to raise our voices and offer our support and unwavering solidarity to the lives of the oppressed.

"Black lives matter. Indigenous lives matter. Brown lives matter. LGBTQ2 lives matter. The marginalized, the homeless, the addicted and the oppressed - their lives matter. We are one as the body of Christ, we are connected to each other, not separate."

"We live in a world with systemic racism. And it can be hard to recognize the Body of Christ when it is on the ground, in a black body, under the knee of the law. If we take our faith seriously, we need not only to open our eyes, but to use our minds, our voices, our hands and our feet, united as one, to make a stand."

Please watch this video for the full message, the full written text is available from the links below.

A Few Last Thoughts
We know that the past few weeks have been difficult ones for many and we'd invite you to reach out if you would like to talk or are looking for support.

We also know the things that our kids are seeing in the world around us right now are difficult to explain. We are working on processing this information with our Children and Youth and would invite you to connect with James Noronha at youth@stgeorgesonthehill.ca if you need further support.
As a starting point for children we have included a link below to the Sesame Street / CNN Townhall on Racism which is directed at younger children is informative, touching and is something we'd encourage all ages to watch, listen and consider.
