I also hit this issue yesterday :-/. To fix it, I found you could make
sure to have (require 'org) *before* loading other packages that
depended on org. Would that work for you? I'm using use-package, so the
particular fix for me was to add ":after org" on every package
declaration that needed to use org.

There's still an issue upstream I think, probably due to a mis-match
between the org that's shipped in emacs and the newer one in guix?

Hope this helps!
Pierre
