Saint George Orthodox Church is part of the Eastern Orthodox family of churches in The American Church Story. 217 congregations of the Eastern Orthodox family gather across Pennsylvania — 2,336 across the United States on The Church Map.
Orthodoxy has carried the worship of the ancient church essentially unbroken since the first centuries, and it has never let the rest of us settle for a gospel that only forgives — it insists God intends to make his people like himself. Its liturgy, its icons, and its theology of the Trinity are wells the whole church keeps returning to.
