Monday’s Easter Greetings Thank you so much for responding to the invitation to share Easter greetings – they have been rolling in all day!

Pasg Hapus! Happy Easter! A warm greeting to everyone! We know this daily reflection is now being sent out across Conwy and the Conwy Valley, but also to other parts of the UK and all around the world: we greet you this day in the joy and peace of the risen Christ. We would love to develop this senseContinue reading “Daily Reflection (Easter Day)”

Living in the ‘in between’ Today’s video is a song: ‘The Stone’ by Sam Hargreaves. It captures beautifully the day of waiting – the day between Good Friday and Easter Sunday, recalling the Gospel account of Christ’s body, sealed in the tomb Matthew 27: 57-66.

Living with contrasts In these extraordinary times, many have been struck by its contrasts – not least as nature is blossoming all around and the sun is out, all while we are experiencing greater confinement. There is so much that distresses us, yet it would seem that communities are coming together and there is muchContinue reading “Daily Reflection 8th April”

The way is hard We begin this morning’s message in prayer, given last night’s news that the Prime Minister has been moved into Intensive Care. The reflection below seems even more appropriate, and we offer it as we pray for Boris Johnson, all who are gravely ill and those who are caring for them. WeContinue reading “Daily Reflection 7th April”

A bridge of iron Holy Week: a bridge from darkness to light This morning’s reflection comes from Heather Thompson, a member of our Ministry Team. I love this aerial picture of Ironbridge in Shropshire. The town grew up around the famous 18th Century bridge, the first of its kind in the world. See how theContinue reading “Daily Reflection 6th April”

Centre of attention Reverend David Parry reflects on the way God sees and hears us, especially when we need it most. View of Jerusalem from Church of Dominus Flevit on Mount of Olives The Franciscan church of Dominus Flevit (‘the Lord wept’), on the Mount of Olives, was built in the 1950s and is dedicated toContinue reading “Daily Reflection 4th April”
