 { bless }


We wanted to share the exciting news that the {  bless  } discipleship group is launching afresh at the end of February, this time on Tuesday evenings from 7pm in the Church lounge. We'll be kicking off on Tuesday 28th Feb - and if you've never heard about it, you can check out more information here: https://www.bethelcardiff.org.uk/Articles/640084/_bless.aspx or if you fancy a chat about it, discipleship is a huge passion of Jon's  and he'd love to talk to you! If you'd love to be part of a group like this, but Tuesday evenings are absolutely hopeless for you,  still get in touch and we'll see what we can do! 

 

Prayer Times

There are a couple of opportunities each week to join with others for a time of prayer. Monday Evening at 7pm and / or Saturday morning at 10am both in the lounge. It would be great if you could join us.

Crafty Chatters

Do you enjoy craft? A few of us will be getting together to craft, have a chat and catch up over a cup of tea or coffee.  We meet on the 1st and 3rd Friday of every month from 7.30pm - 9pm.  If you are interested in coming along or want to know more, have a chat with Sue Rock or Ruth Evans. 

Church Lunch

This is taking place on Sunday 29th January after the church service, There is a sign up sheet on the noticeboard in the lounge for you to sign up if you would like to come.  There is also another sign up sheet for food contributions that can be made.

Christmas Decorations


If you made a decoration and hung it on the Christmas tree, these are now available for you to pick up in a box in the book room. Many thanks

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

 

Where and When

The church is open for activities throughout the week but if you are just seeking us out it is likely that you will want to come and be a part of our Sunday worship which is core to what we are about.
We meet in the main church building (details here) at 10:30 each week. See our calendar to find out plans for the next few weeks.

Accessibility

There is wheelchair access and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. There are disabled toilets in the main foyer and church lounge.

Our Sunday Services


Sunday morning services are structured but informal. They include a mix of both contemporary and traditional worship songs and hymns, prayers, readings from the Bible and a sermon that unpacks this. Occasionally we will also have specific updates about ways that God has been working through and in people and activities. Once a month we celebrate communion as part of the service. The last Sunday of the month is usually an Altogether Service when all ages are all together in one place for a more relaxed and activity based time of worship.

We aim to finish at about 11.45 to Midday when we serve free tea, coffee and cold drinks. This is a great opportunity to get to meet people.

Sunday Evening services, either in person or online, tend to be shorter and more reflective and are an opportunity to dig a little deeper into our relationship with God.
 

What about the children and youth?

We have a great programme for children of all ages, for more information about what happens please visit our Children and Youth page.

Getting Connected

 

Small Groups

It is often in smaller gatherings that we can really get to know other people. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some in the afternoon and some in the evening either in the church, in peoples’ homes or online    .
If you are interested in joining a Small Group, let us know and we can put you in touch with the small group coordinator who will be more than happy to find a group that is convenient for you and introduce you to the group leader.

There are plenty of opportunities to get involved with the life of our church. If you'd like to find out more, please let us know.
