The London Friends of St. George's Paris was set up in 1972 by Rodney Bennett-England when Canon Greenacre was Chaplain of St. George's, and since then has organized an annual service in London, usually followed by drinks and a dinner. This enables former parishioners now living in England to keep in touch with St. George's, and with old friends from Paris.
We meet to renew old friendships and make new ones each year in June by celebrating together the Eucharist, hearing from the Chaplain and of course, in traditional St George's fashion, eating together.
We have used churches where a member of staff has St George's connections: the Grosvenor Chapel where Fr Richard Fermer was Chaplain, St James's, Sussex Gardens where Fr Martin Draper is assistant priest, and in 2023 at All Saints, Margaret Street where the Vicar, Fr Peter Anthony, was once Pastoral Assistant at St George's. We will meet again there on 1st July 2024: book the date.
