Parish Background
St George Orthodox Church was founded as a multi-ethnic parish. Over the years the membership became even more diversified, especially after the new church was built. The parish joined the OCA in 1970.
St George’s Church on Nottingham Terrace in Buffalo is a model American Orthodox parish. It is not dominated by a particular ethnic group nor tied to a single ethnic tradition. On the contrary, it celebrates a blending of the traditions of many lands and peoples in an joyous, spiritual community. We are African Americans, Albanians, Bulgarians, Egyptians, Ethiopians, Greeks, Germans, Hungarians, Irish, Italians, Lebanese, Native Americans, Puerto Ricans, Polish, Russians, Romanians, Ukrainians. A solid American community. All services are in English.
Today, the parish continues to be primarily a spiritual center, as well as a place where personal friendships are cherished and nurtured “with faith and love in Christ.”
