The church itself, at First and Bank, was built in 1928-29. The "birthday" was marked at a luncheon in February. Other events will honour the occa- sion: (our Christmas Fair will harken back to circa 1925) but for parishioners, the anniver- sary is less a series of events than a state of mind. St. Giles is first and foremost a community, and the spirit of community permeates its ac- tivities. It is also an integral part of the Glebe community. St. Giles founders and many current members are Glebe residents, and former residents who have retained their mem- twt\s, bership despite distance. k4, ,,t . , ., , .
