INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF ST. GEORGE THE MARTYR 

BAPTISM - Baptism is the washing of regeneration, which enters a child into covenant with God just as circumcision did for those 8 days old under the old covenant.  The new and more perfect covenant is extended to us and to our children and thus we apply the first of the Dominical Sacraments to both adults as well as children of believing parents.

COMMUNION -   St. George's provides Communion to baptized members of Christ's Church.

FAMILY - We hold a Biblical/covenental view of family relationships establishing the husband/father as the head of the household and spiritual leader of his family.  This is a great responsibility to the man who is to act, not as a tyrant, but like Christ, who gave Himself for the Church.  Sacrificial giving coupled with strong Biblical guidance is what is taught and expected of the Christian man.  A man who teaches, corrects, and encourages Biblically is a representative of Christ to his family which should respond to him, as the Church responds to Christ, in obedience.

HIGH CHURCH - This term is a relative term.  We practice weekly Communion accompanied by the offering of incense, our priest wears the seasonal color vestments (chasuble and stole), we sing traditional hymns (1940 Hymnal) and chant the Psalms with the help of an hundred year old pipe organ.  As a whole, our service keeps with the English Reformation's desire to follow the via media (middle way) by establishing a service high enough to establish reverence but not so high as to lose the focus upon God and His Word. 

PRAYER BOOK - Saint George's uses the 1928 Prayer Book Communion Service.

THE FAITH ONCE DELIVERED - St. George's holds to the fundamentals of the faith, such as the inerrancy of Holy Scripture, six day creation, the Virgin Birth, the Deity and Humanity of Christ, His vicarious death and resurrection, His present reign at the right hand of God the Father to place all His enemies under His feet through the evangelistic and missionary work of His Body, the Church, and His bodily return in glory to consummate His Kingdom (cf. 1 Corinthians 15:24-28).
