- BURN THE MORTGAGE FUNDRAISER: The St. George Parish Council has launched a “Race to 400K” drive to burn our remaining nearly $400,000 mortgage debt. Eliminating the debt also eliminates $86,000 in debt service expenses that can be freed up for system updates, facility improvements, and other church initiatives. Please donate online at https://pushpay.com/g/greekorthodoxstgeorge, on the St. George app at Give>Burn the Mortgage Fundraiser, or by check with “Burn the Mortgage” in the memo. All donations are encouraged to help St. George soon become debt-free!
