TUESDAY SERVICE
Our service last week commemorated the birth of William Carey who founded the Baptist Missionary Society and is considered the pioneer of modern mission.
It has been good to see new faces and there’s a warm welcome to everyone to join in this half hour service which is followed by coffee in the schoolroom. We hold a monthly cakes stall for local and national causes and in August raised £130 for the Teenage Cancer Trust. The September stall is also in aid of this very worthy cause.. During the year we welcome speakers from SASRA (the Scripture readers in the armed forces) and the London City Mission.
Our summer outing to St Fagans in June saw nearly a hundred enjoy a visit to the museum with a service at the Penrhyw chapel. Our Christmas lunch following the morning service on Tuesday 13th December will be held at the Lleidi Suite at the Selwyn Samuel Centre. The coffee offering helps us support the work of Home Mission, BMS, Crisis at Christmas and the South Wales Baptist College as well as other causes which we support as a church.
