Calling all creatures great and small!
“Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!” – Psalm 150:6

On Sunday 7th September, we’re delighted to invite you—and your beloved pets—to a joyful United Pet
Service in celebration of Creationtide! Whether they bark, meow, chirp, slither, hop, trot or even just sit
quietly in a tank, all species are warmly welcomed as we come together to give thanks for the beauty and
wonder of God’s creation.

This will be a fun and family-friendly service with songs, prayers, and blessings specially for our animal
companions, who bring so much joy, comfort, and chaos into our lives. Expect a little noise, a lot of love, and
possibly the appearance of a Labrador or two!

🐶 🐱 🐰 🦎 🐦 🐢 🐍 🐟 🐴

Please note:
This is a change to the usual calendar—so don’t miss it! It’s a wonderful opportunity to come together as
one community (two-legged, four-legged, finned, and feathered alike) as part of our observance of
Creationtide—a season that reminds us of our shared calling to cherish and protect the natural world.
So bring a lead, a basket, a box—or just a photo if your pet prefers to stay at home—and join us as we give
thanks to God for all His creatures.

This service will be held outside - weather permitting.

Hymns:
For the beauty of the earth 167
If I were a butterfly 291
Think of a world without any flowers 662
Who put the colours in the rainbow 73

Blaston: St Giles

Welcome to St Giles' Church Blaston. We are located in a small village located in the Harborough district of Leicestershire, England. The village is situated on a hilltop and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The village is home to a small community and has a rich history dating back to the 11th century. The village is known for its beautiful stone cottages, which are a testament to the village's long history.

St. Giles Church is a notable feature in the village and dates back to the 13th century. The church is a Grade II listed building and is known for its beautiful stained glass windows and intricate stonework. Unusually it has 2 fonts. The churchyard is also home to a number of historic graves, including the grave of a local hero who fought in the Battle of Waterloo.

Blaston is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a popular destination for walkers and hikers. The village is located close to a number of popular walking trails, including the Leicestershire Round and the Macmillan Way. An important event in our calendar is the Blaston and District Agricultural Show which is held each year on the last Sunday in June.

Do come and visit us!
