St. Giles’ in Prince George, B.C., is a building of concrete and wood. The main feature on the outside is a pillar with a cross on the top. The interior is average and needs some renovations.
But St. Giles’ is so much more than this. On Sunday mornings, you will see members of the congregation greeting one another with a friendly smile and inquiring about their week or their health.
The children sing songs of praise to the accompaniment of the piano and various instruments including noisemakers.
The sermon is from the Bible but is pertinent to days living. The congregation is quiet while the minister is talking.
Prayers are then said for the people and requests for prayers are made.
The focus of the service is worshipping God. You can feel God’s presence in the sanctuary and this is what makes St. Giles’ a truly beautiful church.
