St. George Indian Orthodox Church
St. George Indian Orthodox Church, the first Indian Orthodox Church in San Antonio-Texas, was formed to bring together people with mutual belief, interest and passion under one roof to provide a platform to interact with one another, keep alive our ties with Kerala, our home land and pass on our rich heritage and values to future generation.
Our Mission is to respond to the call of our Lord Jesus Christ, to minister to those who are suffering and are in need throughout the world, sharing with them God's gifts of food, shelter, economic self-sufficiency and hope.
Our Church
The Indian Orthodox Church is in the family of and in full communion with Oriental Orthodox Churches. Indian Orthodox Church traces its Christian heritage as far back as A. D. 52 when St. Thomas, one of the Disciples of Lord Jesus Christ, came to India and established Christianity. People of this southern Indian province were known as the St. Thomas Syrian Christians" because our liturgy was in Syriac or in Aramaic which was the language spoken by Jesus Christ himself. We continue to use 'Syriac' language as part of our worship and prayers.
