After all, Jesus himself imagined the Heavenly Father to be like an idealized earthly parent. That is why he taught his disciples to pray, “Our Father”.

For freedom Christ has set us free
Readings: Luke 9: 51-62; Galatians 5:1;13-25 It has never been easy to be a disciple of Jesus. His words, as written down decades later, are often subject to many interpretations, all of which are available to us. Using our intellect and guided by our experience of God in...Why Come to St. George’s?
Here are a few reasons people worship with us:
- We are a friendly, welcoming community. Join us for refreshments both before and after the service on Sundays and get to know us.
- We are not judgemental. We respect your beliefs, even if they are different from ours.
- We will not try to convert you to share our ideas. We don’t have it all figured out, God is too vast for that! We live the mystery of God.
- Our worship is joyful. but it’s also respectful. How else to celebrate God’s love for each one of us?
