St George Antiochian Orthodox Church - El Paso, Texas

St. George is a parish of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, in the Diocese of Wichita and Mid-America. The parish in El Paso began in October of 1947 when several local Orthodox Christians of Arabic descent sought to create a parish to meet the spiritual needs of the surrounding Arab Orthodox community. This first own church building was opened in 2003.
