ABOUT US

Our recently restored church is located on Porthycarne Street. We invite you to visit the serene cemetery behind it—a tranquil spot for prayer and reflection. Relax on the benches amid our bee-friendly plantings, or pause to pray before the beautiful statue of Our Lady.

 

The church is open from 9am to 4.30 pm in the winter months for prayer and for visitors.

 

Please take the time to visit our shrine upstairs to St David Lewis which holds a relic (a piece of cloth dipped into his blood at his execution as the last Welsh martyr in 1679, which happened around 300 yards from our church). There are also paintings of St David Lewis and St Francis Xavier.

 

Leaflets explaining the shrine and church are available.
