Seniors
Over the last few years the Seniors’ ministry at St Giles has gone from strength to strength - about 50 seniors regularly join in the monthly activities with joy and enthusiasm. Our aim is to welcome and bring friendship, fellowship, company and support to all seniors in the parish whether they are regular church goers or not.
On the 2nd Tuesday of each month we get together for coffee and cake at a local garden centre. We also arrange a different monthly activity - we enjoy picnics, walks, afternoon teas, games afternoons, a book group, crazy golf and Afternoons at the Movies in church, as well as visits to places such as the National Memorial Arboretum, the Holocaust Centre and various gardens and stately homes. Short holidays at Willersley Castle have been a real highlight, and every December we enjoy a festive celebration with champagne and canapés, a full Christmas dinner with all the trimmings and wine, followed by Christmas pudding and coffee. There is always a quiz and a sing song of carols.
All activities are advertised well in advance in the weekly Bulletin, and on the annual Term Card which can be picked up from the back of Church or can be downloaded here.
Whether you are new to the area, new to St. Giles or have been a member of the church family for a long time, you are most welcome to join us at any time.
