ST GEORGE'S ANGLICAN CHURCH VENICE
WELCOME...
...to all Christians of any Church or none, who want to find or to worship God using the English language. Your visit may be a virtual one on this website, or actual when you come to our adopted city.
We hope you will find, as many do, that St. George's provides a Christian experience in a familiar Anglican / Episcopalian setting, but one in keeping with our cultural surroundings. Here you can offer your thanks to the Creator in the midst of the glories of the art and architecture of the city, and reflect on how they might affect you in your own life.
You will be made very welcome at our Sunday services at 10.30 am. In the Anglican Tradition, Baptised Christians of all denominations who are in good standing in their own Church are welcome to receive the Eucharist.
For inquiries regarding Exhibition spaces for rent, events, concerts, please contact stgeorgesvenice[at]gmail.com
