The stunning remains of St John’s church, on the Slebech estate overlooking the Cleddau estuary. Well worth a visit if you haven’t seen it! #Slebech #Blackpool #Canaston #Pembrokeshire #SirBenfro #Church #Eglwys #Cleddau #EasternCleddau #Beicio #Cycling #Font #Saturday

The run down medieval church of St Brynach; no power and limited services. Named after a 6th century monk. The church is completely isolated within the grounds of Llanfrynach farm. The associated settlement was abandoned during the plague. #ValeOfGlamorgan #Eglwys ##History #Church #Medieval #Walk #Cerdded #Hanes #Plague #Wales #Cymru

Some pics from yesterday of one of @danielstroud ‘s churches, St. John the Evangelist, Rhydymwyn. It was built in the mid 19th century. Felix Mendelsohn composed ‘The Rivulet’ while staying in the village.

Altarpiece depicting the Last Supper. Only colours are red and black on an off-white background. White words on a black background read, “This do in remembrance of me.”

View of altar and altarpiece. Dark purple frontal with lace on top border; three fleur-de-lis on each side, bordered in gold trim; and centre image is a crown of thorns with three nails pointing inward, connected to each other in the centre.

Wooden lectern held up by a carved angel base. The angel’s face is lit up by a ray of sunlight. There is a purple Bible marker/parament with a gold cross near the bottom hanging down.

Gaudete Sunday! From the first word of the introit (introduction) in the service, gaudete is Latin for ‘rejoice’. The 3rd Sunday marks a reprieve from the penitential aspect of the Advent season, so we light the pink candle on the Advent wreath.

Hymns:
🎵 Come, thou long expected Jesus
🎵 O come, o come, Emmanuel
🎵 On Jordan’s banks
🎵 I, the Lord of 🌊 & sky
🎵 God’s Spirit is in my ❤️

Advent wreath with three candles lit: 2 purple and 1 pink (white candle in middle and 1 purple candle remain unlit). Wreath made of pine branches and holly. Inside of stone church in background.

The wooden altar in an Anglican church in Wales. White fair linen on top with two lit candles. Behind the altar is a gold cross in front of a painted triptych. The images are 2 angels with incense on either side of Christ enthroned, with signs for alpha and omega. The bottom of five stained glass windows is at the top of the photo.

A painted porcelain crib (Nativity scene) sits atop a wooden table with the triptych above the altar in the background. The shepherds, animals, and Mary & Joseph are paying homage to baby Jesus.

A cute, very round, plush robin teddy sits atop the shelf where the hymnals are stored. Wooden pews, a vase of white and pink flowers, and the stone walls of the church are seen in the background.

Here are some closeups of the angels in Holy Trinity.

The Welsh text above it reads, “Canys fy nghnawd i sydd fwyd yn wir…a’m gwaed i sydd ddiod yn wir” which translates to “My flesh is food indeed and my blood is drink indeed” (John 6:55).
