Dean’s Welcome
Welcome to St. George’s College, the Anglican centre for pilgrimage, hospitality, education, and reconciliation in the Holy Land.
For decades, St. George’s College has welcomed pilgrims from around the world to experience scripture in the places where it unfolded. Combining outstanding scholarship with rich opportunities for worship, prayer, and spiritual transformation, our pilgrimages engage both heart and mind. By joining us, you also support the ministry of the Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem and the local Christian community.
Our pilgrimages bring Scripture into sharper focus through encounters with the people, places, and Christian communities of Palestine, Israel and Jordan today. Participants return home with renewed faith, fresh insights into the Bible, and a greater appreciation for the land and its people.
Located just a short walk from Jerusalem’s Damascus Gate, St. George’s College offers a peaceful setting for learning, reflection, and Christian fellowship. From here, pilgrims worship in St. George’s Cathedral and local churches while journeying throughout the Holy Land, where the biblical story comes alive.
Whether this is your first pilgrimage or a return visit, we invite you to join the St. George’s College community. We look forward to welcoming you on a journey that will deepen your faith and enrich your walk with Christ.

In the Words of Our Pilgrims
“This was so much more than visiting the places I had read about. Scripture, worship and community came together in a way I will carry with me.”
