St Giles' Church

St Giles, Skelton, is one of the best preserved and beautiful thirteenth century churches of England located in the older part of the village. We are a small, friendly rural church looking to grow in numbers, in faith and in generosity, so we can share God's love within Skelton. We now have a new digital organ a kitchenette and we plan soon to install a toilet. You are warmly invited to come and belong to St Giles' Church!

On Sundays starting at 09:30 we have a mix of traditional communion services, with excellent organ music and flute and all age family worship, which we hope to adapt and so engage more people. From January we will be sharing a Benefice Service with Shipton and Newton once a month too.

St Giles is open daily for personal prayer and a space to be still

We love to connect with our community - working with the school when asked as we offer class visits in church, curriculum enrichment in lessons and doing assemblies for key festivals. We also facilitate a space to catch up with friends and make new ones at Mandy's Café in the village hall which happens the first Friday of each month. Do come along and enjoy refreshments and light lunches from 10.30am.
