Prayer Requests

At St. Giles there are opportunities for private and communal prayer, whether it is lighting a candle or praying with others on Sunday morning, we believe God hears our prayers and answers them as may be best for us.

If there are particular issues that you would like prayed for then please let us know. In particular we pray every Sunday for those who are sick and for those who have passed away.

Prayer Group

Sundays 8:30am

Thank you to those who have joined in our Prayer Group which meet 'at home' on Sunday at 8.30 a.m.  Please let me know if you participated in this so I can let the ‘group’ know

If there is somebody in your circle of family and friends who could
benefit from our prayers, or if you have suffered a recent bereavement please forward the relevant name to the Parish Office.

Ash Wednesday

This year Ash Wednesday falls on 18th February.  There will be a service of Holy Communion with the Imposition of Ashes and the Penitential Rite at 8.00 p.m. and this will then be repeated on Thursday 19th February at 10.00 a.m.  In preparation for this please can you let me have your Palm Crosses from last year, either at the Church or at the Rectory. 

Please can I stress how important it is as Christians to enter into the season and spirit of Lent and to commit ourselves to prayer, fasting and the giving of alms as is the custom during this season.
