St. George
Episcopal Church
Maple Valley,
Washington
Welcome to Saint George, a warm, inclusive, welcoming, and caring congregation, where we
Love God. Love Your Neighbor. Follow Jesus. Heal the World.
Founded in 1967, Saint George has always been an intergenerational Episcopal community,
dedicated to service to the wider community and full of hope and love for future generations.
We are a “broad” church, incorporating the best of protestant, catholic, and orthodox traditions,
while making room for contemporary ways of worshipping and praying together.
We are a loving family,
taking time to know one another, pray for each other, and share life’s milestones together.
All are welcome to worship with us in person or online on Sundays or
to walk our community labyrinth outside at any time.
Children are welcome in worship;
we also have nursery and Sunday School programs available most Sundays.
We hope to see you soon!

St. George Episcopal Church is a church on a mission:
Love God. Love Your Neighbor. Change the World.
As a congregation, we strive every day to live our mission and our core values as disciples of Christ.
The horrible events that took place in Charlottesville, Virginia, and other locations, serve as a reminder
of that mission and a clarion call for us to live it.
​
In the recent words of our Bishop, The Rt. Rev. Greg Rickel, in his message following these events:
"What is true now is always true, it is up to us, with every step we take and every act we engage in, wherever
we are, to have the best of intentions, the best of ourselves, and most of all to do what we are called to do as
Christians, imitate the one we follow."
We lament the profound way that racism limits and diminishes the quality of all our lives and are greatly
concerned for the well-being of those within our congregation, our colleagues, friends, and neighbors, and
the surrounding community who live every hour of every day amidst the ravages of racism and the grip of
fear it spawns.
​
We extend that concern to all those targeted by conscious or unexamined forms of bigotry and hate-based
ideology because of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, class, age, ability, or
other differences that are judged by some as not normal or right.
​
We condemn the ideology and actions advocated and perpetrated by White Nationalists, White Supremacists,
and neo-Nazi organizations and individuals that resulted in tragedy.
​
We lament the hate-filled racist ideology and violent actions that are part of our historical legacy
as a nation, part of the fabric of our current culture, and which are extending their reach with disturbing vigor.
​
We call upon all our national and local leaders to condemn unequivocally these movements of bigotry and
intolerance, as silence and neutrality toward them are tantamount to endorsement.
We stand in support of all those who have spoken out against the forces of bigotry and hatred.
And we advocate for the dignity, respect, safety, and well-being, of all people.
St. George stands as a congregation and people of faith ready to listen, ready to act, ready to help, ready to
walk in love.
