Welcome to St. George's Cathedral
Stand Fast in the Faith
Saint George's Cathedral is a house of prayer for all people, and you are always welcome. Since 1792, this Cathedral has been a spiritual home for the Anglican Diocese of Ontario as well as the greater Kingston community. We seek to serve and love God and our neighbours, and are committed to growing in faithfulness and in responding to God’s call for us as people of faith in our community and beyond.
Harvest Thanksgiving Service
Sunday, October 13 – 10:30am
Almighty and gracious Father, we give you thanks for the fruits of the earth in their season and for the labors of those who harvest them. Make us, we pray, faithful stewards of your great bounty, for the provision of our necessities and the relief of all who are in need, to the glory of your Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. (Book of Common Prayer)
Join us in-person or online for a celebration of the Holy Eucharist with Choral Matins on Thanksgiving Sunday! We give thanks for the beauty and bounty of God's creation through readings, prayers and music. The Right Rev. William Cliff preaches and presides. Music includes Praise to God by Kingston-based composer Mark Sirett, and J.S. Bach's thrilling Prelude in D Major, BWV 532.
Whether you are a visitor; a tourist passing through historic downtown Kingston; somebody seeking a spiritual home; or a long time member of the St George’s Cathedral family, I am pleased to welcome you.
We are the Anglican Cathedral for the Diocese of Ontario, which stretches from Trenton to Cardinal; and from Bancroft and Maynooth, through Merrickville, to Kemptville; and including the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory.
The Cathedral is a vibrant, welcoming and inclusive community of people, sharing a passion for inspiring worship and teaching, and committed to serving the needs of our wider community.
With Sunday services ranging from the quiet and contemplative, to the music of the English Choral tradition led by our excellent choir; and from our mid week healing service to our Friday Litany of Reconciliation; there is a place for everyone at the Cathedral. And with our outreach work extending from Refugee support; to our newly planned Under the Dome Cathedral Tea Room; to our partnership with the OSGK feeding programme, founded by the cathedral over thirty years ago - alongside the work of our Projects Group, Visiting and Prayer teams, Flower Guild, Children’s Ministry, and many more - there is a place for everyone to join in.
So please do join us at one of our gatherings; learn more about us through this website; or reach out to us directly with any needs or questions.
We’d love to meet you.
The Very Rev. Douglas Michael | Dean of Ontario
