What a Week!

Once again, Refugee Week was an amazing experience and we’re so grateful to everyone who participated. We’ve gathered everything together in one neat page on our website. So why not check it out? It’s full of videos, blog posts, pictures and articles from the week.


Citizens Assembly

Last week, Citizens Cardiff held an Accountability Assembly at the Church of the Resurrection in Ely gaining commitment from prospective MPs. Check out what happened on their social media posts. A group from Wales is travelling to a similar Assembly in Westminster on Monday.


Every day’s a gift

This week, we had a catch up with the core team of the Youth Endowment Fund working across Butetown and Grangetown. Fr Dean reflects on the inspiration and the energy.


Summer Praise & Strawberry Tea

Come and sing your favourite hymns (let us know before the day who you would like to sing!) and enjoy a Strawberry Tea afterwards on Sunday 7 July at 4pm at Ss Dyfrig and Samson.


OMG!

Our event for young people is back on 14 July at St Saviour’s Church. This month, it will have a Walsingham Youth Pilgrimage vibe! Join us for worship at 5pm followed by chippy delights!


Glastonbury Pilgrimage

The Glastonbury Pilgrimage is 100 years old! If you’d like a seat on the coach leaving from Cardiff then either add your name to the list in church or get in touch with us. A £10 payment is required. The bus leaves St Mary’s Church at 8.45am, and leaves Glastonbury approximately 4 pm. You can find out more about the pilgrimage here:
