This
Parish of the Episcopal / Anglican Church was founded in 1930 as
an Episcopal Church for African Americans. St. George's
witnesses to the Gospel of Jesus Christ as expressed through the
Anglican Tradition. We serve as a guiding light for our
parishioners as well as the larger community. We bid
you welcome in the name of the Lord!

Sunday
Worship
Change
in our Liturgy
Beginning
again
Today, you’ll notice a few differences in our
order of worship. Most importantly, our service will include an
opportunity to receive Holy Communion. If you previously picked
up consecrated bread and wine from the church, you may consume it
when invited to do so. We’ll follow the form found on page 396 of
the Book of Common Prayer (“Communion under Special
Circumstances”), which also includes Confession and a
Post-Communion Prayer.
If there is more than one person in your
household, I encourage you to serve Communion to one another.
If you did not have an opportunity to pick up
consecrated bread and wine, you may wish to pray the prayer below
while others are receiving. It’s a prayer for Spiritual Communion
that originated in Apartheid South Africa, in another time when
the sacraments of the Church were not always readily available.
Jesus,
may all that is you flow into me.
May
your body and blood be my food and drink.
May
your passion and death be my strength and life.
Jesus,
with you by my side enough has been given.
May
the shelter I seek be the shadow of your cross.
Let
me not run from the love which you offer
But
hold me safe from the forces of evil.
On
each of my dyings shed your light and your love.
Keep
calling to me until that day comes
When,
with your saints, I may praise you for ever.
Amen.
(1989 Anglican Church of South Africa)

For
Labor Day
Almighty God, you have so linked our lives one with
another that all we do affects, for good or ill, all other lives:
So guide us in the work we do, that we may do it not for self
alone, but for the common good; and, as we seek a proper return
for our own labor, make us mindful of the rightful aspirations of
other workers, and arouse our concern for those who are out of
work; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with
you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

U St. Townhouse Update
Thank
You!
We are
finalizing all work in the townhouse this week. Our broker has
begun to advertise our offices for lease with the goal of having
all offices leased to Non Profit organizations. City Farm - our
current renters - will continue with us but will lease one of the
bigger offices. We look forward to our continued relationship
with them!

Serving the Community

Kwanzaa Kitchen: Janis has
been able to come up with a unique way in which we will continue
to feed the hungry in this important ministry. It involves fewer
than 6 people and we will pack the food to go and place it
outside on tables for people to take their breakfast with them.
We will continue this way until we are able to gather groups
together again.
