What to expect on a first visit

Saint George Orthodox Church describes itself: “A parish of The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America.” Expect ancient liturgy engaging all the senses — chant, incense, and icons. Much of the congregation stands, and people come and go quietly during the long service; arriving mid-liturgy is normal and unremarkable. Expect hymns with choir or organ. Children's programming or nursery care is available.
