  • Pool Mission Area Pioneer Priest Application Pack February 2016
    Pool Mission Area Pioneer Priest Application Pack February 2016 A Profile of the Diocese of St Asaph The Diocese of St Asaph is a diverse and hopeful community of faith. With roots in the Celtic church and a wealth of character and tradition, we seek to continue to uncover our shared vocation as God’s people in the Church in Wales in the north east of the Province. We are a Diocese in good heart and seek to persist in responding joyfully to God’s challenge. The Diocese follows the English/Welsh border in the east, whilst the western edge is delineated by the Conwy Valley. The northern boundary runs along the North Wales coast as far as Llandudno, but only takes in part of that town. The southern boundary runs from the lower end of Llyn Tegid (Lake Bala) across to Dolfor, just south of Newtown in Powys. Ecclesiastically it is bordered by the Dioceses of Chester, Lichfield and Hereford on the northern and eastern sides. To the the south we border Swansea and Brecon Diocese and to the west, west, Bangor. The The Diocese is predominantly rural, with many parishes having populations of less than 1000. However, there are important and continually developing industrial and commercial areas around Deeside (one of the largest industrial parks in Europe) and Wrexham and significant smaller developments along the two main arterial roads (A55 (A55 A55 and A483). The The coastal strip is home to traditional holiday resorts and tourism is an important industry in many parts of the Diocese. The largest employers are the local authorities through education and the health services with two large general district hospitals at Bodelwyddan and Wrexham.

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. M43 - NEWTOWN AND LLANLLWCHAIARN Introduction 1. Newtown is the largest settlement in Powys and has the range of community services and facilities that should be associated with such a settlement. It has the third highest precepting council in the county: a council that has retained a considerable sense of civic pride - deriving from the former urban district of the same name - in its activities. 2. The community has a population of 10,873, an electorate of 8,238 (2005) and a council of 16 members. The community is warded: Llanllwchaiarn North with 1,664 electors and three councillors; Llanllwchaiarn West with 1,433 and three; Newtown Central with 2,300 and three; Newtown East with 1,572 and three, and Newtown South with 1,269 and four. The precept required for 2005 is £132,785, representing a Council Tax Band D equivalent of £35.01. 3. Apart from a transfer of the area around Aberbechan Hall to the new Abermule ward of Llandyssil community, the boundaries of this community were not significantly affected by the 1986 Review. Recent development, together with its designation as a small village in the Unitary Development Plan, has meant that the small village of Aberbechan now straddles the community boundary with Llandyssil, a point to which we shall return. 4. In the 1986 Review, it was proposed and generally accepted that the community should be divided into five wards, and the final proposals of the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales were that each ward should have an allocation of three councillors.

  • Pool Mission Area News
    Pool Mission Area News 8th Issue - December 2016 People news We are delighted to welcome Alexis Smith to the Mission Area. Alexis is serving as a Pioneer Minister working primarily in Llandyssil and Castle Caereinion but hopefully developing a model for rejuvenating small rural churches which can be developed for use elsewhere. This is a 3-year post funded by the Diocese. Sadly there were no applicants for the post of a ‘House for Duty’ priest based in the Border Bridges Group when it was advertised in the autumn. It will be re-advertised at some point in the New Year after we have become a Mission Area as that might allow us more flexibility in the way the job is configured. In the meantime the four full-time clergy in the MA will each provide pastoral care to one of the churches. Rev’d David Francis, is making steady progress recovering from the stroke he suffered earlier in the year whilst Rev’d Imogen Marsden, another of our retired clergy, is on the mend after knee surgery. Rev’d Bethan Scotford’s husband Ron, and Rev’d Hazel Stibbe’s husband Paul are both not at all well – please keep them in your prayers over Christmas. Mission Area Progress The date has been set for the Commissioning Service when we will formally become a MA. This will be on Sunday 12th March. The time & venue will be confirmed early in the New Year. If you would like to be involved in preparing the service and any other events for this day, please let me know.

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. M21 - LLANDYSSIL Introduction 1. The community of Llandyssil took its current form in the 1986 Review, when a warded community comprising the new village of Abermule and the historical village of Llandyssil was created from the former communities of Llandyssil, Llanmerewig and parts of the former Newtown and Bettws communities. The topography of the community is defined by the valley of the river Severn, the road and rail routes that follow its course, and the hills and tributary valleys leading away from it. Settlement in this community is defined in particular by the routes that lead to the A483 and Newtown. Both Abermule and Llandyssil have seen a significant amount of development in recent years. Abermule is classified as a key settlment in the Unitary Development Plan, benefiting from a good range of community services and infrastructure and having the capacity to accommodate additional development. Llandyssil is classified as a small village, having some community services and facilities, but being served by access roads that are not of the highest quality. The small village of Aberbechan, with its limited community services and facilities, straddles the community boundary with Newtown and Llanllwchaiarn, a point to which we shall return. The remainder of the population lives in scattered farms and dwellings and in the small rural settlements of Green Lane and Llanmerewig. 2. The community has a population of 1,218, an electorate of 1,004 (2005) and a council of 10 members. The community is warded: Abermule with 599 electors and five councillors; Llandyssil with 405 and five.
