Despite that, the campaign to save the school continues. Local Councillor Huw Wil- liams has called the decision in for further scrutiny by the Local Authority so there is still a chance to object. Both the Bishop and the Diocese were disappointed with the Council’s decision. In a letter sent to Council- lors ahead of the Cabinet Meeting, Bishop Gregory said: “In Llanbedr we have a community who have responded positively to the challenge set by this consultation.

Revd Philip Chew also worked on a song with the pupils of the school which has been seen more than 1000 times on YouTube. A statutory notice of closure will be published in due course and people unhappy with the decision will again be able to voice their objections.

  • Letter to Church Members (February 2021)
    ST JAMES’ CHURCH RHOSDDU ST JOHN’S CHURCH, RHOSNESNI From the Revd Sarah Errington The Vicarage Priest-in-Charge 160 Borras Road Telephone: 01978 266018 WREXHAM e-mail: [email protected] LL13 9ER 10 February 2021 Hallo Everyone! Ash Wednesday and Lent I hope you are finding the weekly mailings helpful in your spiritual reflections and activities. Last week’s package included a sheet with a suggested service/activity for Ash Wednesday, which is next week, and marks the beginning of Lent and our preparations for Easter. I have considered doing a streamed service for Ash Wednesday, but in the end decided that I don’t have the capacity. The Mission Area leaflet attached gives details of online Ash Wednesday services in the Mission Area; or you might like to watch the service from St Asaph Cathedral at 7.00 pm on Wednesday, on the Cathedral Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/StAsaphCathedral/live/, or the Cathedral website: https://stasaphcathedral.wales/. Next week I will be sending out two resources which you might like to use through the weeks of Lent. The first is called A Journey Through Mark’s Gospel, and provides a number of readings and reflections for each week of Lent. The second is called Baking Through Lent, and focusses on the Sunday gospel reading for each week; it provides a recipe which is linked to the reading, which you might like to bake. If you do that, and you have the opportunity before your food is scoffed (!), it would be fantastic to share some photos of what you’ve baked! You can either post them on our Facebook page/group, or send them to me by email, and I’ll post them for you.

  • Dyffryn Clwyd Mission Area
    Dyffryn Clwyd Mission Area Application Pack: November 2019 The Diocese of St Asaph In the Diocese of St Asaph or Teulu Asaph, we’re • Growing and encouraging the whole people of God • Enlivening and enriching worship • Engaging the world We’re a family of more than 7,000 regular worshippers, with 80 full time clergy, over 500 lay leaders, 216 churches and 51 church schools. We trace our history to the days of our namesake, St Asaph and his mentor, St Kentigern who it’s believed built a monastery in St Asaph in AD 560. Many of the churches across the Diocese were founded by the earliest saints in Wales who witnessed to Christian faith in Wales and have flourished through centuries of war, upheaval, reformation and reorganisation. Today, the Diocese of St Asaph carries forward that same Mission to share God’s love to all in 21th Century north east and mid Wales. We’re honoured to be a Christian presence in every community, to walk with people on the journey of life and to offer prayers to mark together the milestones of life. Unlocking our Potential is the focus of our response to share God’s love with people across north east and mid Wales. Unlocking our Potential is about bringing change, while remaining faithful to the life-giving message of Jesus. It’s about challenging, inspiring and equipping the whole people of God to grow in their faith. Geographically, the Diocese follows the English/Welsh border in the east, whilst the western edge is delineated by the Conwy Valley.

  • Welsh Disestablishment: 'A Blessing in Disguise'
    Welsh disestablishment: ‘A blessing in disguise’. David W. Jones The history of the protracted campaign to achieve Welsh disestablishment was to be characterised by a litany of broken pledges and frustrated attempts. It was also an exemplar of the ‘democratic deficit’ which has haunted Welsh politics. As Sir Henry Lewis1 declared in 1914: ‘The demand for disestablishment is a symptom of the times. It is the democracy that asks for it, not the Nonconformists. The demand is national, not denominational’.2 The Welsh Church Act in 1914 represented the outcome of the final, desperate scramble to cross the legislative line, oozing political compromise and equivocation in its wake. Even then, it would not have taken place without the fortuitous occurrence of constitutional change created by the Parliament Act 1911. This removed the obstacle of veto by the House of Lords, but still allowed for statutory delay. Lord Rosebery, the prime minister, had warned a Liberal meeting in Cardiff in 1895 that the Welsh demand for disestablishment faced a harsh democratic reality, in that: ‘it is hard for the representatives of the other 37 millions of population which are comprised in the United Kingdom to give first and the foremost place to a measure which affects only a million and a half’.3 But in case his audience were insufficiently disheartened by his homily, he added that there was: ‘another and more permanent barrier which opposes itself to your wishes in respect to Welsh Disestablishment’, being the intransigence of the House of Lords.4 The legislative delay which the Lords could invoke meant that the Welsh Church Bill was introduced to parliament on 23 April 1912, but it was not to be enacted until 18 September 1914.
