Welcome to St George’s College website. Our courses are fully open once again and we invite you to find the study pilgrimage that suits you best. Holy Land pilgrimages are so often a life changing experience and we are sure that your call to encounter Jesus Christ in these lands will be deeply enriching. Now that there are no travel restrictions into and out of Israel and Palestine we have reverted to our usual booking practices. A $500 deposit books your place on a course; this is non refundable but it is transferable to an alternative course in the following year if circumstances require. Further information can be found here.

Message from the Dean
I am pleased that you have found your way to the website for St George's College, Jerusalem.
St George’s is situated just ten minutes walk from Damascus Gate in the heart of the holy city of Jerusalem. It is a wonderful and well-appointed location for short-term pilgrimages, study, interfaith conversations and reconciliation programmes. Our courses weave together time at sacred sites all over the Holy Land, with daily worship in the College and in local churches and incorporates reflective conversations during the fellowship of community meals. People from all over the world join our programmes as they seek to encounter Christ on their study pilgrimage. I am pleased to invite you to experience this for yourself and if you have been before to sign up to a follow-up course.
You are welcome to join our community of learning. Your faith will be deepened and your life enriched by the experiences you will enjoy in and through St George's College.
The Very Revd Richard Sewell, Dean of St. George’s College
