A part, whilst being apart Today’s reflection comes from Rosemary Melling from St. Mary’s Conwy, as she considers how this time of physical separation can actually bring us together and closer to God. It is so timely, as we venture our first online service tomorrow, and then a ‘virtual’ coffee morning (scroll to the bottom…

Today, at 11am there will be a national minute’s silence in…

Messages from high on the hills and from across the world Today we hear again from Clive Addison from his smallholding in the hills above Conwy, where the lambing season continues! The picture at the start of his reflection is taken from there, of a spectacular sunrise. But first, we have our daily share of greetings –…
