Our Parish

OUR PARISH

In an effort to provide useful information and to encourage the active participation of our entire community in the life of our Church, we are pleased to provide our parishioners with a detailed "directory" of various St. George organizations, resources and activities, along with contact information.  These activities range from language, religious and cultural education, philanthropic and community service activities, athletic programs, youth mentoring and fellowship initiatives - there is an activity for all ages and interests.  Because events are constantly being added to the Church schedule, we ask that you check our website regularly, read the weekly Church bulletin, or call the Church Office for information about upcoming events.

 

CHURCH SCHEDULE

Church services are as follows:  Orthros 8:30 a.m.; Divine Liturgy 9:30 a.m.  The Divine Liturgy service on Sundays is followed by a Fellowship/Coffee Hour in the Agganis Auditorium; all parishioners and guests are welcome to attend.

 

SCHEDULING EVENTS

To schedule events, Sacraments and other religious services, such as Baptisms, Weddings, Memorial Services, 40 Day Blessings and other religious services please visit or contact the Church office stgeorgely@aol.com or 781-593-6162 well in advance of the proposed date to make arrangements.

Please note:  There are traditions in Orthodoxy that must be adhered to in Church and at home, particularly in preparation of a Holy Sacrament.  Should you require specific information regarding how to properly prepare for an Orthodox Sacrament or ceremony, such as Baptism, Chrismation, Marriage, Holy Communion, Holy Unction, Confession etc., please contact Father Alex fralexorphanos@gmail.com for guidance.

Upon scheduling a Sacrament, the parties directly involved, parents - sponsors, with regards to a Baptism, and the perspective bride and groom and best man "KOUMBARO and/or KOUMBARA", with regards to the sacrament of Holy Matrimony, will all receive written information and the necessary guidelines for participation and involvement in the Sacrament of our Holy Orthodox Church and/or you can view all necessary paperwork on our website under RESOURCES.

Library:  In 2007, St. George dedicated the Demetrios P. Katsoulomitis Library, containing education reading materials on our Orthodox religion and history, and Hellenic culture, traditions and history for parishioners of all ages.  Those wishing to donate educational materials to the library should contact Father Alex or the Church office at 781-593-6162.

Conference Room:  Adjacent to the church library and the media center is the newly-renovated AHEPA Conference Room, a comfortable and professional setting which is used for meetings, presentations and mentoring sessions.

Media Center:  In 2007, St. George dedicated the Kosmas Speliakos Media Center, complete with new state-of-art computers, Internet access, and a fax machine available for use by the Greek and Sunday School youth of the parish.
