BEDDGELERT

ST MARY’S CHURCH: A message to the whole Parish of Beddgelert from our Rector and Vicar: “It is with great sadness that services and activities in St Mary’s Church are suspended until further notice. This means there can be no Sunday services or funerals in the church and the weddings in June and July which we were so looking forward to have been postponed. This action has been taken by our Bishops to protect our community from the threat of the Covid-19 Virus, following advice from medical experts to avoid ‘non-essential contact’ with others. We endeavour as a worshipping community to continue in praying for our world and for those in need, and welcome you to join us in praying for those who are struggling at this time. The Church will be open as usual for you to visit and light a candle of hope in the darkness of our current situation, but we ask you to keep in mind the advice about washing hands and social distancing.Please be assured of our ongoing prayers and support, Every blessing, Canon Dylan and Rev’d Kim”
