Saint George Chapel
Please join us for Holy Communion, every Sunday at 9am, at the Old Post Chapel, Fort Cavazos, Texas.
Who we are
Saint George Parish is a sacramental chapel community serving the Soldiers, families, and civilians in the Fort Cavazos area. All are welcome to attend and worship with us.
We welcome anyone seeking to grow in love and charity, to serve the Lord, and serve this community to which God has called us.
Our Worship Style
The style and format of our worship and spiritual formation is rooted in the Anglican Book of Common Prayer, a tradition dating back to the 1600s.
Our prayer and worship are rooted in the ancient sacred liturgy and traditions of the Church. Our worship services and calendar are guided by the Book of Common Prayer, the very first translation and adaptation of the ancient liturgies of the Church into English. Our music reflects the best of the Christian Church from psalms and chants to contemporary worship.
The central focus of our Sunday morning service is the Holy Eucharist. We believe in the sacred mystery of the Sacrament, that the simple elements of bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ; that Christ’s real presence is experienced and that God’s grace is bestowed through participation in the sacrament.
We use the Book of Common Prayer 2019 from the ACNA tradition.

Our History
The Anglican/Episcopal congregation at Fort Cavazos (formerly Fort Hood) is one of the most historic chapel communities on post, meeting consistently since 1967. Over the years this community has maintained its identity and guarded its heritage through the principle of “lex orandi, lex crendendi,” the law of what is prayed is the law of what is believed. Simply put, this community is a "prayer book" community.

About Saint George
Saint George was a fourth century Roman cavalryman who, legend claims, slayed a dragon responsible for killing entire armies. He prayed, made the sign of the cross, and in faith rode against the beast, slaying it with single blow of his lance. He is the patron saint of the cavalry and of our parish community.
