Firebreak implications Reverend David Parry writes: The ‘Firebreak’ temporary lockdown in Wales starts today at 6pm. For so many people it is disheartening to re-enter a time of such significant restrictions. We pray that this sacrifice will succeed in slowing the spread of COVID-19, protecting those most at risk and therefore saving many lives. ChurchContinue reading “Next three Sundays”

Finding the way A timely and wise reflection from Paul Clough. Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD:“Safwch ar y ffyrdd; edrychwch, ac ymofyn am yr hen lwybrau.

This week’s online Service is brought to you by Reverend Tom Saunders, Reverend David Parry, Ros Mitchell and Mark Holliland. Our focus today is a passage from St. Paul’s letter to the people of Philippi: Philippians 4:1-9 which helps us think about ‘contact’ in such ‘contactless’ times as this! Communion Services will also take place this weekContinue reading “Weekend Service”

Harvest at a time such as this This week’s reflection is by Andrea (Andy) Butler from St. Mary’s Conwy, and leads on from our weekend online worship video. Just how are we to reflect on harvest this year? Yna dwedodd, “Gwyliwch eich hunain! Mae’r awydd i gael mwy a mwy o bethau yn beryglus. Dim faintContinue reading “Weekly Reflection”

Croeso – Welcome to worship Many thanks to everyone who has been praying for Conwy County since a local lockdown began here. The good news is that our Services in Church buildings can continue, because of robust safety measures we already have in place (including mask wearing and social distancing).
