Our Vision

Banner - Our vision is to see...


The focus of the life of Jesus was the salvation of the world. When He acted and spoke, things changed. When people met him, the course of their lives was changed. He confronted the underlying causes of human sadness and suffering and he changed the course of history.

Here in Northampton and all around the world, lives are being changed by Jesus today.

This isn’t just superficial change but deep and lasting transformation. And the good news is that each and every person is invited to be part of this movement. Each one can be changed forever and can become a change maker.

At St Giles, we don’t want to settle for simply coming to church or doing church. We want to see lives changed, we want to see communities impacted and we want to see the town of Northampton being transformed. We believe that it can happen as people commit themselves to following Jesus and joining the call to change the world.

To fulfil this vision, St Giles has a ‘strapline’ which reflects the enduring mission of the church.

To worship God, to make disciples and to transform lives.

We’d love you to come and be part of a great adventure. Come and see for yourself…
