St George's Anglican Church, Baghdad |
|
St George’s Church, Baghdad is situated on Haifa Street in the ‘Red Zone’ of Baghdad. The vibrant congregation of over 1000 Iraqi Christians are led by their Vicar, Canon Andrew White.
You will all remember the visit of Canon Andrew White to St John’s on Christ the King Sunday in November 2008.

Just one of these needs is for basic health care.
