This Advent we will be having our Christmas Cantata as part of our Advent worship on Sunday morning. Our own Angelo Galarza has hand-picked specific arrangements and assembled a cantata for our Community Choir to sing this year. In order to get a grasp of all the music, we are going to be having a few simple weekly rehearsals on Sundays, right after worship. We encourage everyone who would like to participate to stick around for the next few Sundays and rehearse with the Community Choir. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Josh at josh@stgiles.org.

Pray for Our Youth!


Next Friday, Nov. 1, the youth of St. Giles will be joining forces with the youth from Eternity for this year’s Fall Retreat at Camp Willow Run. We have close to 30 youth going this year! In light of how transformative their summer mission trip was, we ask you to please intercede for our youth over the next week and a half, leading up to the event. God is doing some amazing things through our youth and we are excited to see what He has in store for them.

Mark your calendars for the St. Giles Ladies Retreat, March 28-29, 2025 at Richmond Hill. Join us for a time of growing together in fellowship, worship, and prayer. More details to come! 

St. Giles’ own Bev Walters will be facilitating First Thursday Book Club on Nov 7th in the St. Giles parlor at 10 AM. Bev’s excitement of sharing about Terry Fullam, a great man of God, is contagious. Join us on 11/7 for an inspirational discussion and sharing. Lunch will follow the meeting for those whose schedules allow.

Laughter & Lunch


What a great feeling it is to laugh! Truly laughter is good medicine. Mark your calendars and plan to come to Laughter & Lunch on November 14th at 11 in the St. Giles parlor and on December 12th at 11 at the home of Kathie Chrismeyer. For both the November and December meetings, bring a bag lunch and a beverage. Also bring a humorous story, memory, or joke to share, and be prepared to receive a healthy dose of the good medicine of laughter!
