Worship at St Giles
Join us for prayer and worship at St Giles Church. Parish Eucharist takes place each Sunday at 10.30am, followed by refreshments. On third Sundays, BCP Matins or Holy Communion at 9am is followed by a simpler service at 10.30am suitable for all ages. Of course, children are welcome at ALL our services!
See the Parish News for dates of other gatherings such as Taize Prayer.
Church Weddings
Let the confetti fly! Get married in Graffham!
Throughout the year, couples chose to be married at our beautiful and historic St Giles Church. It is certainly an idyllic setting, nestled in the lee of the South Downs at the quiet end of Graffham village.

Searchable Map of Graves
Local historian and mycologist (fungi and mushroom expert!) Jonathan Simons has designed a searchable map of graves in the Churchyard extension at St Giles.
Visit the page on the Graffham Archive here and read about how and why it was developed in the March 2025 edition of Graffham Parish News here.
