Monday 1st September - St Giles's Day and a 300th Bielby Birthday!

Monday 1st September - St Giles's Day and a 300th Bielby Birthday!

Monday 1st September is St Giles's Day, the festival of Bielby's patron saint.  At 7.00 pm we shall have a festival communion service, followed by light refreshments.

 

It is also a really special occasion because Bielby's chalice was bought in 1725 (George I was king, incidentally) and it is still used here today.  In effect, this occasion marks its 300th birthday.  That is quite something.

 

Everyone is welcome to come along and enjoy the occasion.
