Welcome to St. George's Website.

We sit firmly in the Orthodox Anglo-Catholic tradition.

St. George's Breaking News

With exceeding great gladness, the Bishop of Oswestry shares the news, recently announced, that the Revd Dr Owen Edwards has been appointed Vicar of St. Michael's Penwerris and Interim Priest-in-Charge of St. George's Truro in the Diocese of Truro. These are parishes which have long lingered in interregnum but which now look to the future with confidence, ambition, and vigour. Ss. Michael, George, Piran, Petroc, and all the saints of Cornwall, pray for Fr Edwards, his family, and these dear parishes!

Our Special events:

Ss. Peter & Paul - We had a wonderful celebration for Fr. Michael's Golden Jubilee of Ordination with a Con-Celebrated Solemn Mass followed by a "Bring & share" lunch in the hall. It was a joy that Fr. Michael's family were there to support him.

Other news:

Family Fest 2024 - concluded on Sunday, 16th June. Unfortunately, the weather was mixed but spirits were not dampened! The theme this year was "Magnificat - Mary's Song".

It was a joy, as always, to welcome Bishop Paul to St. George's on Sunday 18th February to celebrate Vespers and Benediction. The liturgy was followed by a cream tea and cakes!
