Wishing Tom Well and Welcoming Matt

Have you “noticed” something new?!

You may have heard that Tom is leaving St Giles for pastures new in the Dales. We have been blessed to have Tom with us for the past couple of years and wish him all the very best in his new role. Tom’s last service will be on the 30th May.

Matt Broughton is currently a curate at St Paul’s in Ireland Wood. He will come to help with our services until the end of September. We are looking forward to hearing him come and preach at our 9.30 am service on 1st, 2nd and 4th Sundays. He will also be taking a lead on our baptisms, weddings and funerals. We are really looking forward to welcoming Matt. You can learn more about him in his introductory video below.
