We will remember them
We have some special occasions across the Ministry Area on and around Remembrance Sunday.
Please note: on this day the Eucharist at St Paul’s will be at the earlier time of 9.45am and there will also be a short act of remembrance at Ss Dyfrig and Samson at the end of Mass.
Homeless Memorial Service
Commemorations, memorials and celebrations continue throughout November including a Memorial Service for those who have died homeless (above) which takes place at the end of the month.
You can find out more at our November web pages.
African Celebration
Join us for an authentic African celebration with food, music and culture organised by some of our Nigerian family at St Saviour’s.
The event is free although donations are welcome. You can book your place in person at St Saviours or using the booking form here:
St Paul’s Christmas Bazaar
Get the date in your diary and get the word around for St Paul’s Christmas Bazaar on November 30th!
Clergy Appointment
The post of Vicar for South Cardiff Ministry Area is now being advertised on the Diocesan Website and in the Church Times.
You can read the Ministry Area and Job profile at the Diocesan Website (link below).
Gaza Appeal
The conflict in Gaza is taking a devastating toll on the lives of people in Gaza. They’ve seen death and destruction on a scale of unimaginable proportions.
Over the next few Sundays there will be an opportunity to donate in a retiring collection at St Mary’s for the DEC Middle East Humanitarian Appeal through Christian Aid. You can find out more at the Christian Aid website
It’s Christmas!
Well, actually, it’s not! But we are getting ready for all our Advent and Christmas preparations, and this week we launched details of our Advent Course, “It’s Christmas!”
The course which explores the meaning of Christmas through popular musical soundtracks from the Christmas season. You can discover more here:
Advent and Christmas 2024
If you can’t wait to find out about our celebrations before and during the Christmas Season, then you can check out this “live” page below
It’s still in the process of being developed with more events and opportunities to be added soon!
