Saint George Greek Orthodox Church

About this church

Saint George Greek Orthodox Church gathers at 2219 North Orchard Street in Fresno. Sunday Orthros begins at 8:15 a.m. and Divine Liturgy at 9:30, with services livestreamed on the parish YouTube channel. Weekday Orthros and Liturgy are offered for selected feasts, so the parish asks visitors to use the calendar or call the office for those changing dates.

The visitor guide explains Orthodox worship with unusual care. Guests enter quietly, may light candles and venerate icons, and are invited to follow the congregation without feeling pressure to master every custom at once. Holy Communion is reserved for baptized and chrismated Orthodox Christians, while everyone may receive the blessed Antidoron bread; non-Orthodox guests can also approach for a blessing. Modest clothing and silenced phones are requested, children are welcomed in worship, and nursery and Sunday School options are available. Refreshments and conversation follow the Divine Liturgy. Parish life includes catechism for inquirers, youth groups, young adults, senior adults, grief support, Greek language and folk dance, outreach, and Project Mexico. The published guide makes a first Orthodox visit substantially easier to plan.
