St. George Community

"Let brotherly love continue. Do not forget to entertain new comers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels" (Hebrews 13:1-2).
Our History
The Saint George Church was founded by Semendrian Greeks and other Christians from Asia Minor. Our first parish was built on Hill Street in Pontiac in 1928; our second parish was built on Mariva Street in Pontiac in 1931; and our current location was built in Bloomfield Hills in 1966.  
Since its inception, our parish has had a steadfast commitment to The Way (as Christianity was called by its earliest disciples). We strive to be positive witnesses of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as expressed in the apostolic tradition and worship of the Holy Orthodox Church. We invite you to participate in this witness by joining the worship and fellowship of Christ's Church in Bloomfield Hills.
*More history coming soon.

​The Orthodox Church
The Orthodox Church has her origin with Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, not with a human teacher, nor group, nor a code of conduct or religious philosophy. Orthodoxy believes that the Church has her origin in the Apostolic Community called into being by Jesus Christ, and enlivened by the Holy Spirit by the will of God the Father. The Feast of Pentecost, which is celebrated fifty days after Easter (also called Pascha), commemorates the "outpouring'' of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and marks the beginning of the mission of the Church to the world.
We are Orthodox because our tradition of prayer and worship is rooted in the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic undivided Church.
The Orthodox Church was founded by Christ through the Apostles and has maintained a living, historical connection with the Apostolic Church through the ordination of its clergy. The bishop that ordains an Orthodox priest today can trace his ordination historically all the way back to the Apostles, and through them to Christ. For this reason we are “apostolic” – rooted in the first Apostles – the disciples of Jesus.
We are also apostolic because we believe our calling is to go out and share our faith with others. For this reason, we welcome you to visit the Orthodox Christian parish in your neighborhood or town.
Although our parishes may carry a designation of Greek Orthodox or Russian Orthodox or some other ethnic identity, this does not imply that you need to be of a certain ethnic origin to join us in worship or to consider becoming an Orthodox Christian.
