Who We Are
About Us
The Parish of Calvary-St. George's is a historic Episcopal parish consisting of two churches, located in the Gramercy and Stuyvesant Square-area of Manhattan. We are a community of people in the Episcopal Diocese of New York, which is a constituent member of the worldwide Anglican Communion. Our worship is steeped in The Book of Common Prayer, intended first and foremost to glorify God in Jesus Christ, and we stand in that theological tradition that owes a debt of gratitude to the great reformers of the English Reformation.
We seek to rightly divide the word of truth between Law and Gospel so that the people in the city of New York and beyond might know and confess where they end and God begins. We proclaim the historic faith of Christ and Him crucified.
"When I came to you, brothers and sisters, I did not come proclaiming the mystery of God to you in lofty words or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and him crucified." – 1 Corinthians, 2:1-2
