The Church of Saint George (Arabic: كنيسة القديس جيورجوس or كنيسة مار جريس, Hebrew: כנסיית גאורגיוס הקדוש קוטל הדרקון, "Church of Saint George the dragonslayer") in the city of Lod is a Greek Orthodox church containing a sarcophagus venerated as the tomb of the fourth-century Christian martyr Saint George.

The church sits adjacent to the Great Mosque of Lod. The church building is based on the partially rebuilt Crusader-period church, which had itself been built over part of the remains and footprint of the Byzantine-period predecessor.
