Inscription. St. George's is part of the worldwide Anglican family of churches (70 million members) and celebrates the diversity of congregations in 150 churches in the Diocese of Los Angeles. Originally built in 1891 in El Toro, the mission church was served by circuit riding priests who were responsible for ministering of Orange County. Our original church is now a museum at Heritage Hill Park at Serrano and Lake Forest, only ten minutes from here. St. George's current home was dedicated in 1969. The adobe tiles in our memorial fountain and by the entrance of the resent sanctuary, which handcrafted by parishioners during the construction, are a beautiful reminder of our rich and colorful history.
