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!

Join your Transition Team for a
look at St. George's Heritage. The Transition Team promises a
short afternoon of great fun as the parish gathers together to
discover our heritage through several team exercises.
Our clergy transition period is
the Parish's time to discern who we are and who God is calling us
to be while rekindling old connections and making new ones.
Join the Transition Team each
month as we discover our heritage, values, mission, leadership,
connections, and our future.
This month we explore our
heritage and what St. George's means to us. Please join us as
this ongoing conversation needs all of you.

Kindred
Coaches
2020 is a year that will never
be forgotten. Our community is suffering from two
pandemics: COVID-19 and a nationwide awareness of racial
injustice. These crises are taking a significant toll on our
community physically, mentally, and spiritually. The Truth
and Reconciliation Commission of the Diocese of Maryland in
collaboration with the Union of Black
Episcopalians and Memorial Episcopal Church are launching
a new ministry called Kindred Coaches. Kindred Coaches™ will
encourage Courageous Conversations on an individual
level and in group activities.
The goals of this Health Equity
ministry are to address healthcare disparities within communities
of color. The program will offer training to individuals so that
they may provide peer coaching to community members on the issues
of health disparities in communities of color to include the
COVID-19 pandemic, mental health, obesity, high blood
pressure and diabetes.
In conjunction with
Wellcoaches®, Inc., we are offering a 12-session training to
become a Kindred Coach. This training will be provided over a
six-week period (two 90-minute sessions per week) at no
cost. After completion of the training, you will be registered
with Kindred Coaches™ to actively work (voluntarily) with
communities within the diocese.
Contact us through our website
at www.kindredcoaches.com or at info@kindredcoaches.com. You can also reach out Carol Scott, M.D.,
Ms. Shannon McCullough, Karen Mercer, or Fr. Grey Maggiano.

Season
of Prayer for Election
The Office of Government
Relations of The Episcopal Church has coordinated resources to
help us through this particularly election cycle. From an
organized daily prayer series to a prayer hotline, individual
prayers for elections, and a toolkit for voting faithfully, plus
a host of other offerings, these resources reflect our deep
commitment as a people of faith to “respect the dignity of every
human being,” as our Baptismal Covenant reminds us, and
participate fully in the democratic process of our nation. We
encourage you to make use of these resources during these three
weeks leading up to November 3rd and hold our nation and the electoral
process in your prayers. https://episcopalchurch.org/posts/ogr/election-prayer-resources-episcopal-church-and-our-partners

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.
