Weddings

It is both a privilege and a joy to join a man and a woman in marriage and we’d love to welcome you for a church wedding here at St.Giles. Church of England churches have been celebrating this moment with couples for centuries.

Funerals

Losing a loved one at any time is particularly difficult and we want to do all we can to help and support you. Our natural human desire is to be surrounded by others in order to experience their comfort, support, and prayer, and to acknowledge the grief and loss together. 

If you wish to discuss a funeral or memorial service with a member of the clergy, please contact the Church Office on 01604 628623 or email enquiries@stgilesnorthampton.org.uk
