Thank you for visiting St. George's on this website. We hope that you enjoy your visit and find (like many others before you) that your experience of the Anglican Church here uplifts your stay in Venice, whether long or short, and helps you to reflect on God's creative activity in the history and culture of this city, and in your own life.
St.George’s Church, Campo San Vio
You can help us to go on offering this experience to Venice's many English-speaking visitors. We are maintaining a tradition of Anglican services in Venice going back 400 years.
The builders arrived on 10th June and started work on stage 3 of our Appeal projects. This means the development of the rear premises of the church, to provide, on the ground floor, two new WC cubicles, a (very) small kitchen space where we can make coffee and tea, a much expanded space for preparing other refreshments or church flowers, etc, by the removal of the vestry. Then upstairs a new Upper Room where we can have the vestry, but more importantly where I and future Chaplains can have a study which will enable us to be present in church much more often, and so keep it open.

400th Appeal - Fundraising for stage 3
St. George’s Day Wednesday, 23rd April, 2008
22nd April. I 'm sorry to all readers (assuming there are any!) for my long silence on the blog - Preparations leading to Holy Week and Easter overwhelmed me. We had splendid celebrations for Palm Sunday and then for Easter at Venice on Easter Day, at Padova the following Sunday (30th March) and at Trieste only last Sunday, 20th April. All told, over 220 people attended; Venice became host to an extra 40 lovely people on tour from the US, as well as our usual 100+.
Palm Sunday, the day before yesterday, was a wonderful day for all our churches in this Chaplaincy.
Sunday 24th February was special in three ways - well, Sunday is always special! three MORE ways:
1. A FIRST AT ST. GEORGE'S! we were able to provide HOT TEA and coffee with the refreshments after the Sunday service. It was a chilly day so this was very popular, and refreshment-time went on longer than the service itself!
