Office Notes
The office will be closed Friday, March 29 - Tuesday, April 2 in observance of the Easter weekend. If you have a pastoral emergency (e.g., death, loss of job) and need to speak with clergy urgently, please call or text our pastoral emergency phone (540.361.8573).
Easter Outreach Offering
Each year, St. George’s vestry designates our Easter loose offering to a mission beyond the church walls. This year we are responding to the dire need of our sister parish. Notre Dame, in Port Au Prince, Haiti. They are struggling to keep their school open as a beacon of hope for the children as well as the staff and parishioners in some of the worst times faced by Haiti. On Easter, any cash in the collection plate, checks designated “Easter Outreach”, or electronic gifts (select “Haiti” in the menu) received will be sent securely to Notre Dame. Thank you for your generosity.
Commemoration of the Martyrdom of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
On Thursday, April 4, the churches of Micah Ecumenical Ministries invite the community to gather at 5:45 pm at Shiloh Baptist Church (New Site, 525 Princess Anne St.) for a service commemorating the anniversary of the martyrdom of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. At 6:01 pm, there will be a moment of silence as we remember the time when Dr. King was assassinated in Memphis. There will be awards presented to local heroes who have continued Dr. King’s legacy.
