Style of Worship:
St George’s stands within the liberal catholic tradition
of worship and theology. Its strengths include a diverse
and welcoming congregation, dignity in worship, and its
strong choral tradition.
Other
Activities:
Our other activities include a
youth group meeting on Sunday evenings, a Fairtrade
coffee morning on Friday mornings (and Saturday
afternoons between April and September (inclusive)),
bell-ringing, a book group, film group, 18-30s group,
and much more. Recently we have launched a group for
toddlers and their carers which meets in the Church Hall
on Monday mornings. We also provide opportunities for
learning about the Christian faith.
The Church:
St George’s is a fine
Grade 1 listed building of architectural interest built
by the shipbuilder Charles Mitchell and consecrated in
1888 to serve the growing community of Jesmond.
The
campanile is modelled on that of St Mark, Venice.
The interior is lofty
and richly decorated throughout, with fine stained glass
and impressive floor and wall mosaics. It provides an
inspiring setting for worship and also for concerts.
