St. George Consecration: Sunday, October 15, 2023

What Is Consecration?

The Consecration of a church (Ἐγκαίνια Ναοῦ) is the service of sanctification and solemn dedication of a building for use as a church. The consecration of a church is a complex service that is filled with profound symbolisms. Once a building has been consecrated as a church it may not be used again for a secular purpose.

How Can I Support Construction?

The past few months, you may have noticed construction around the church. We are refreshing and renewing nearly all of our church, from the marble floors to the iconostasis itself.

By the time of our consecration, St. George will invest over $600,000 in building improvements since 2022. This is only made possible by the generosity of our parishioners, who are investing in the next 100 years of our parish.

We invite you to make a donation towards our consecration and become a Consecration Godparent. You can contribute in two ways:
