St. George's Church

The granite stone building showcases Gothic Revival architecture with a 150-foot wooden tower and fine stained glass windows throughout the structure.

The church received its charter from King George III in 1761, with Francis Lewis, signer of the Declaration of Independence, serving as warden from 1765 to 1790.

The congregation holds services in three languages - English, Chinese, and Spanish - reflecting the multicultural composition of its members from over twenty nations.

The building contains a 1922 Ernest Skinner pipe organ with 37 ranks of pipes distributed across four manual keyboards and a pedalboard for musical performances.

The tower bell incorporates metal from the original 1760 bell, maintaining a physical connection to the earliest days of the congregation.
