Welcome to our Website. We hope you find it useful and enjoy your visit.
The Church of St Giles has been privileged to serve the community of Balderton
for eight centuries. In our day we continue to work to make the love of God,
supremely revealed to us in the life of Jesus Christ, known to our parish. At
the centre of all we do lies our 9.30am Eucharist and 6.00pm Evensong.
The church is in a prominent position in the village which is now home to some
15,000 people. Some people think the name of “Balderton” was taken from one of
the Norse gods. You may like to read more of this on our history page.
For many people especially those seeking to make plans for either baptism or
marriage their main contact is with the Parish Surgery, which is held every
Tuesday evening 6.00pm – 7.00pm in the Church Vestry. During the period from
May – September the church is open weekday afternoons 2.00pm – 4.00pm when
visitors are welcome to join us for a cup of tea.
St Giles is a traditional Anglican church. We value our heritage whilst enjoying
the best of fresh expressions of worship, and extend a warm welcome to all our
visitors.
Please do take time to join us, you are assured of a warm welcome.
