This part of our website gives some examples of ways in which people at St Giles are serving and reaching out to others through social action. We believe that God wants us to treat each and every person we meet with grace, love and respect. As we reach out to people in practical, loving ways, we pray that they may get a glimpse of the good news of the gospel and come to know Jesus for themselves.
