St. George Church of Indianapolis was established in 1926 and ministers
to Orthodox Christians of a great diversity of backgrounds. We are
united in our common Faith. At St. George’s, first and foremost, we
worship together in the confidence that our Lord Jesus Christ is
invisibly present with us, as He promised. We also study the Faith
together in the children’s church school programs and in various adult
study groups. We work together on various ministries, ranging from our
charity ministry to youth ministry to building maintenance. Finally, but
also very important, we enjoy fellowship with one another.

Patriarch Bartholomew, the senior leader of 300 million Orthodox
Christians, feels "crucified" living in Turkey under a government he says
would like to see his Patriarchate die out. Despite some factual errors,
the report is very inspiring (includes some footage in Turkey and on Mt.
Sinai).
Patriarch Bartholomew on the Last Christians in Turkey
Maria Khoury, who will be coming to Indianapolis to
lead a retreat co-sponsored by the women of Holy Trinity and St. George,
is interviewed in Taibeh, the last Christian village in the Holy Land.
Maria Khoury on the Last Christians in the Holy Land
Both Maria and Patriarch Bartholomew emphasize their
trust in God and believe in miracles.
We had a visitor attend
January 24, and she wrote a review of our church service; she
posted it on line, entitled, “This
is Not a Church for Sissies!” She has also
now posted a podcast of
Q&A with Fr. Nabil.
