October
Prayer Companions
Following on from our Prayer Survey, we are looking to organise a group of ‘Prayer
Companions’: volunteers who would be available to pray with people in the Lady
Chapel during Holy Communion once a month as part of our healing ministries.
Please speak to the clergy if interested in being trained for this or finding out more.

Baby Loss Remembrance Service
15th October at 7pm
Baby Loss Awareness Week which is held annually from 9th to 15th October.
It’s a special opportunity to mark
the lives of babies lost in pregnancy at or soon after birth. On 15th October, people around the world light candles at 7pm local time in memory of babies they have lost.
At St Giles’ Cripplegate we will mark this occasion with a short service of
remembrance and light candles together. We extend an invitation to anyone who has been affected by miscarriage, still birth or the loss of a child; to those who struggle with infertility; to those
who long for children; and to those who have made the difficult decision to end a pregnancy.
