Our History

It was on November 20, 1994 at the St. George Rectory's Dining Room, that the St. George Filipino American Association was born. The initial potluck meeting was open to all parishioners who were interested and eager to join. The following attended the meeting:

Renato and Cristina Sacramento

Renato Sacramento and Eva Kanagusuku volunteered to be the chairperson and recording secretary, respectively.

Renato informed the group about Fr. William Heric's proposal on how to encourage St. George families to be together and have fun on Valentine's Day. During the meeting , the members brainstormed some ideas on how to achieve the said proposal. Finally, everybody voted unanimous for the Dinner Dance, to be held on a weekend close to Valentine's Day.
