Worship & Services

Worship at St George’s is reverent, beautiful, and rooted in the ancient Anglican tradition.

We are a High Church (Anglo-Catholic) parish, which means our services are enriched with ceremony, music, vestments, and the full dignity of the Church’s liturgy. In every service, our aim is to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, offering our very best in prayer and praise.

We follow the Church of Ireland’s liturgical calendar and lectionary, celebrating the Eucharist as the central act of worship. Visitors will find our worship familiar yet transcendent — with Scripture and sermon, Holy Communion open to all baptised Christians, and music that lifts the soul.

The Church Year

Feast days & solemn liturgies

St George’s observes all major Feast Days with solemn liturgies. We continue beloved traditions such as the Christmas Midnight Mass — St George’s was notably the first church in Ireland to hold a Midnight Eucharist on Christmas Eve — a Service of Lessons and Carols in Advent, and the Three Hours Devotion on Good Friday.

The church is generally open daily for private prayer. All baptised Christians are welcome to receive Holy Communion.
