  Last month we celebrated Easter Day twice at St. Giles. As the Rector was busy at the other churches in the morning there was a service of Holy  Communion for Easter Day at 6.30pm.  However, at 11am we had a joyful service of hymn singing and storytelling. The highlight was a solo from Lucas  Jones of John Rutter’s ‘The Lord Bless You and Keep You’. Afterwards we had some very excited children (and adults) looking for Easter Eggs. Something for everyone, a very happy day.
