Visit stgilesmatlock.co.uk Our church life is centred on the Sunday morning Sung Eucharist where, within the Anglican liturgy, we aim to combine the traditional and modern, the formal and relaxed, drawing worshippers of all ages. We aim to make the beauty and symbolism of our sacramental tradition availabl

e to a new generation. By our regular weekday celebrations of Holy Communion and our care for our much loved church building we provide a place where the Word of God may be heard in stillness and peace. Through our service in the local community, our social life and works of witness, we aim to be a channel by which men and women may seek God. Please see our website www.stgilesmatlock.co.uk for the calendar and details of services.

Thank you, to everyone who came together from across the Parishes for a United Sung Eucharist and to celebrate our Patronal Festival. Your presence made it really special. Thank you to the home team who never fail to deliver delicious celebratory baking and bubbles. We also applaud Louis who served at the Altar for the very first time. Well done Louis, you were wonderful!
