In this old, old giant space, you will hear preaching as big as the heavens, as deep as the oceans and as uplifting as the mountains. The St. Georges community is warm and welcoming, and as multicultural as the mosaic that makes up NYC.
Ive been going to Saint Georges for about 4 years. Its a beautiful church, very welcoming congregation, and lots of space for social distancing. The music is wonderful. They have lots of programming during the week (prayer group, bible study, small groups, book club, and more), currently via Zoom.
Excellent preaching. Stirring music. And a wonderfully welcoming community. St. Georges is a place of rest, and its message of grace has, time and again, been a balm for me. The annual candlelight service is a staple of the holiday season for the community.
Amazing grace flows from every corner of the worship at St. Georges - sermons, music, prayers, bread and wine - and people. In my 74 years on this planet, I have never found a more exciting and welcoming church.
When we first visited more than four years ago, it was immediately apparent the care this church puts into everything they do—from the beautiful music to the preaching, and all the way down to the way parishioners care for each other. It has been a place of rest and inspiration ever since, especially during the pandemic this past year.
So grateful to the clergy, staff and fellow parishioners for being so loving during these challenging times. Coming safely together in Gods care online and in-church means everything to me. Come join us.
Ive been going to St. Georges church for a year now, and call it my home. Its a warm and welcoming community, with insightful preaching and personal clergy. I highly recommend!
St. Georges Church hosts some of the finest preaching you will hear in NYC. The clergy consistently apply the Bible to lifes situations with close attention to the central message of the Good News of Christ crucified and risen. Music director, Kamel Boutros, fills each Service with both classic and original compositions of sacred music, historic and contemporary hymnody, always presented with clarity and conviction. Look no further and come to St. Gs on Stuyvesant Square Sundays at 11:00am.
St. Georges Church is a wonderful community church - my wife and I have been attending for the past 10 years and love the warmth of the congregation and the thoughtfulness of the clergy. Highly recommend!
St. George’s is a true jewel of a church and community - as welcoming virtually as they are personally, with extraordinary gifts of preaching and music. I’ve felt extremely blessed to have St. George’s as my spiritual home...no desire to look elsewhere...
Weve been going to St. Georges for about a year and half, and its been a great joy and weekly touchstone during the craziness of the Covid-19 pandemic. Jake, Ben, and the rest of the clergy took the time to get to know us and reach out - we highly recommend!
St Georges has beautiful services and a warm community! The church has done a great job keeping us connected even as everything has gone virtual in the past year.
The fact that this church houses the oldest Deaf congregation is so inspiring. Lovely welcoming church devoted to service
A beautiful, historic church in a beautiful location. They have done a fantastic job during the pandemic-- both making in-person safe when possible, as well as streaming online. A wonderful community in which the Gospel is preached as truly good news. If youre looking for an Episcopal Church that puts Grace at the center of everything, this is the place for you.
I’ve been a member of St. George’s for almost two years, and it’s the only church where I’ve felt truly at home. In addition to beautiful services and thought-provoking and Scripture-based sermons, St. Georges offers a warm and safe community (a must in New York City!) to both members and first-time visitors and a variety of ways for everyone, regardless of age or interests, to become involved. Members are kind and welcoming, and the clergy is reliable and personable, and both work to ensure new members feel included. I instantly felt a part of a community when I began attending almost two years ago, and I would recommend St. George’s to anyone looking for a church to call home.
I have been attending Calvary-St.Georges since September 2020. St. Georges is a beautiful church with the word of God that fills it every Sunday. The sermons push your faith deeper and wider and how much we need this throughout the pandemic. Add to it great clergy and music, this is a spiritual home.
Great church. Solid, dynamic and theologically sound sermons each and every Sunday. The clergy takes their faith seriously, but that comes with a healthy dose of self aware humor. Law Gospel, Lutheran style theology at its finest. Warm, and welcoming congregation too.
I have been a member at St Georges church for six years. My kids were baptized here and the community has become incredibly important to our family. I am always impressed by the quality of the sermons, the music and community outreach. Attending church at St Gs is always the highlight of my week.
Amazing in-person service EVERY Sunday. Great preaching, fantastic music, joyful community of people from all over the city. Tremendous outreach for kids, families, and folks of all generations. Free reservations for in-person services on the website. SAFELY worship with us on Sunday with JOY! In-person for Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday. We gather socially distanced on the sidewalk after the service! Join us!
I went to an Ambient Church concert here. It was so incredible. The architecture is amazing and it’s great to see religious institutions supporting the arts like this.
Worth checking out, either online or in person. I came to visit years ago and the parish has only become better. Preaching and music are truly world class. There is no such thing as a typical church member here, there is no defining demographic. People come here mostly because they find what they want from a church in the first place.
Cool church! The pastor and all the people were real great to me on my first visit. Good message and music.
The parish of Calvary-St. George’s has been an incredible source of comfort and support throughout all of 2020. My family and I were part of Calvary when we lived in NYC a few years ago, and for the past year we have been so grateful to attend the livestream services and zoom bible studies remotely. The clergy preach God’s love, grace, and forgiveness through Jesus Christ.
So thankful to have this church in my life! They are uplifting, positive and inclusive. The parishioners are warm and inviting. I’ve been coming here since I was a child so I’m lucky to have been involved early on! Newcomers are very welcome too.
I discovered this church online during the pandemic and they truly got me through the worst of quarantine. I now attend services in person and feel blessed to have that privilege!
Ive been going to St. Georges church for 5 years now, and call it my home. Its a warm and welcoming community, with insightful preaching and personal clergy.I highly recommend!
Amazing church, amazing sermons, amazing free programming all week long. This church has fascinating history, being the parish of Harry Thacker Burleigh, Anton Dvorjak, Stephen Tyng... I was honored to have the opportunity to get married in the chapel here.
Heartfelt worship - we say it because we mean it. Traditional prayers wedded with a variety of music, all focused on Gods transformative love for us. Warm faith community.
Great preaching, wonderful music, and strong community. If youre looking for a church, check this place out!
Looking for a church for my family and young children, I found St. Georges over 10 years ago and never looked back. Its a real gem - the people, the liturgy, the clergy, and the music - amazing. Check it out - you wont be sorry!
Calvary is a wonderful church - Ive been going for about a year and call it my church home. Caring clergy, beautiful building, powerful preaching.
As regarding the Common Table (soup kitchen downstairs on Thursday afternoons from 12 noon to 1 pm) a very lovely operation presided over by caring volunteers. Seating is at tables arranged in long aisles. Two lines form before noon and after a short inspirational prayer, hot, home-made food and a fresh, tossed salad are served from one table while piping hot soup is served from another. Tea, coffee, lemonade and water are available and I believe it safe to say the variety of desserts offered -- including long lines of cakes, muffins, cookies, pies and occasionally ice cream -- is greater here than at any of the scores of similar venues in the entire city of New York. First-rate operation; satisfying food served in generously portioned sizes; a cozy atmosphere inside a below-ground vault. Beautiful.
This place continues to properly distinguish between Law and Gospel Sunday after Sunday. If you want serious Christianity rooted in classical Christianity with reverent worship look no further
Welcoming congregation with beautiful music and profound preaching at a lovely and quiet location. We love attending St. Georges!
Felt very warm and welcoming. I love the Architecture of this church but more important I loved the service and it goes very quickly. Also loved the singers and the songs that are sung are very beautifully performed!
A rare Gospel find. I am so glad whenever I can visit for worship. Looking forward to events when that is possible!
I don’t think it is used for prayers at all at this stage, but it is great
St. Georges has the history, the music, and the preaching to comfort all who are weary and in need of rest. You wont find a more inviting place.
I love being able to GO to church. During the pandemic St. Georges bells and having a church to go to gave me so much hope!
Great worship in this historic landmark. Ive been a member for almost 12 years and love being a part of this community!
Amazing teaching, community, history, Stunning architecture, world class music, arts ministry, all in New York City… What else could you want?
Great church, great people!
Love this beautiful historic church. The messages are always relevant and full of grace.
This is my old place in Manhattan.When I was a NYU student,I lived there on the third and fourth floor(was duplex )with a family. Wonderful my home✨✨✨

2022-09-13St. Georges Episcopal Church is a beautiful church with stained glass windows and a wonderful place to sit and meditate. Last week it was the holding area for a film I had the privilege to be a part of.We filmed across the street in the park and it was a beautiful two days. Loved the stained glass windows

2021-03-23Because of the pandemic, I would have thought that church life and upkeeping the faith would be extra challenging. But the parish of Calvary St. Georges seemingly seamlessly moved their operations virtually, making their service accessible to myself and countless others. Theyve grown a lot since Ive joined only a year ago, but theyre not a church that would allow that to get to their ego, or change their fundamental message. Which is to get the gospel right, before getting the gospel out.Ive heard many sermons from many places over my life, but the message I get here is unique, and feels a blessing to hear. It carries with me through the week, it cant be helped -- its hard not to crave coming back.The people who go there and also those who run the parish are some of the most naturally warm and welcoming types of people Ive ever met. Theres no doubt God works through this parish. I feel a real happiness to be here, and grateful to have found this place.Bonus, the music alone is worth absorbing and losing yourself in.

2021-03-16Beautiful historic church on Stuyvesant Square Park and close to Union Square. My family worships here in person every Sunday. Out of great love for people, the church is very careful to observe a restricted number of attendees, social distancing, contact tracing, and mask wearing. If you dont feel comfortable meeting in person, you can always join online at calvarystgeorges.org. The liturgy will lift your gaze heavenward and the sermon will help you see Jesus. Hope to see you Sunday!

2021-03-17I’ve been attending St. George’s for nearly 14 years, and can honestly say that I hope to attend for the next 14 years. Having been raised in a more conservative tradition (read: do-it-yourself Christianity), St. George’s was the first church I ever attended where the Gospel message I was hearing really felt like “good news.” Since then, St.G’s became my home, and I feel more a part of the community than ever, as the people there attend not because of shared politics, class, or interests, but because of a shared view that we’re all sinners saved by grace.

2021-03-27Id heard good things about this church from several friends over the years, but never got the chance to visit. One rainy February, a meeting I had downtown wrapped up early, so I stopped by the Ash Wednesday service. I went to services the next Sunday, and have continued attending whenever Ive been able ever since.The church has great music and preaching and is a wonderful, welcoming community. The welcome here doesnt come with an asterisk, either. Even if you can only attend the occasional weekly service (which was my situation when I started going), the clergy will still go out of their way to make you feel like this is your home. Recently, my wife and I relocated to a new city right before the pandemic started raging. The churchs quick pivot to virtual programming was a lifeline to us during this horrible year, when we felt especially stranded.

2021-03-16This church is amazing and so beautiful! Theyve done really well during the pandemic to make sure everyone is socially-distanced and able to worship safely. Super warm and welcoming community with priests who preach the Gospel. 10/10 would recommend!

2021-03-23The meaning of the Gospel as truly Good News is made crystal clear each Sunday in this wonderful parish. All of the clergy are superb preacher-scholars who penetrate the Biblical text to reveal its truths, making it relevant and accessible. The glorious Anglican liturgy is done with simplicity, beauty and dignity, without affectation. The incomparable director of music assembles top-notch musicians to render an eclectic range of music which ever fails to illuminate and enhance the themes of the message of each service. Parishioners here are a diverse group of warm, loving people seeking God. I am so grateful to have found this place.

2021-03-25We just went to visit in 2003 and never looked back. The clergy, the music, and the beautiful historic church drew us in but the message made us stay. It’s rare, unfortunately, to find a church that feels like a “come as you are party” but this is just such a place. We feel comfortable bringing anyone knowing that all are welcome.
