St. George Church is a Catholic Community of God's People located in Lauderhill, Florida and founded in 1962. We are a people of diverse ethnic origins, united in faith, formed by the Gospels, strenghened by the Holy Sacraments, and following the teachings of the Catholic Church. We seek to deepen our personal union with our Savior Jesus Christ. We seek to enrich our heritage of care and concern for all by sharing God's love, proclaiming Good News, living in Peace, and healing with the world around us. We strive to carry on the message of freedom and social justice to those in need. Guided by the Holy Spirit, we pledge ourselves to pursue this mission by participation in the liturgical, educational, and social ministries of our Church. We recognize the need and accept the responsibility to share our spiritual, physical and financial resources.
