George mfiadini

|Mchoro wa Hans von Kulmbach (1510 hivi).
George (kwa Kigiriki: Γεώργιος, Geṓrgios, yaani Mkulima; kwa Kilatini: Georgius; 256/285 - 23 Aprili 303) alikuwa askari wa Dola la Roma ambaye inasemekana alifanya kazi kama afisa katika kikosi cha kumlinda kaisari Diocletian.

Huyo alipoanza dhuluma dhidi ya Wakristo, Joji alikataa kuasi imani yake, akauawa huko Lydda (leo nchini Israeli)http://www.santiebeati.it/dettaglio/26860.

Tangu kale anaheshimiwa sana na Wakristo wa madhehebu mengi kama mtakatifuGeorge Mtakatifu ametajwa katika Kitabu cha Sala ya Kawaida (kwa Kiingereza Book of Common Prayer) wa mwaka 1662, na pia katika Kitabu cha Ibada ya Kawaida (kwa Kiingereza Common Worship) mwaka wa 2000. Hata hivyo, makanisa mengine ya Kianglikana hawamtambui kama mtakatifu.. 

Hata katika vitabu vya Uislamu anatajwa kama nabii جرجس, Jiriyas (au Girgus). 

Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 23 Aprili, siku ya kifodini chakeMartyrologium Romanum.
