Who we are
St George's is a friendly, welcoming Parish in the village of Clayton, a small community in Lanark County. The church was established in 1901 and since then we have been witnessing to Jesus Christ and making a difference in this community.
We meet regularly for worship at 10:00 on Sunday and we provide Sunday School for the children. We read Scriptures and celebrate Holy Communion each week, enabling us to go out into the world refreshed and empowered to be the hands and feet of Christ in our world.
We have a desire to grow spiritually and to live the good news of the Gospel in our daily lives. We think of ourselves as a community with a ministry of hospitality. We all work together to make things happen, and happen they do. There is always something going on and opportunities to help are unending.
If you want a community to worship with or a family to work alongside, St George's is for you. Please join us on Sunday and check out this incredible Parish.
God Bless you all!

St. George's Anglican Church History
In 1854, Clayton was an outlying mission of the Parish of Carleton Place. In 1855, James Ennis donated land to build the first St. George church in Clayton, and a few years later, in 1867, Clayton became part of the two-point Parish of Almonte. In 1887 the name was changed to the Parish of Almonte and Clayton. The following year, the Parish of Clayton and Innisville was formed.
Esther Dickson donated land in 1895 for a rectory to be built in Clayton, but it was decided to build a new church instead. The old church was subsequently sold, and the first service in the new stone church – the present church – was held on 23 October 1901.
The new St. George was designed and built in a classic Edwardian architectural style, giving it a timeless look and welcoming character.

Light of the World
Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth... may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.
