Holyhead, North Wales

David and Katie Meggers (pictured here with their son and recently adopted baby) have been in Holyhead in Anglesey for a little over three years.

The Welsh chapel in which they worship reminded me the first building I pastored in Llantrisant 45 years ago.  Although the there are a number of church buildings in the town, several of them only have very small congregations.

It was good therefore to hear from the Elders that Elim in Holyhead is reversing the trend with particular growth within the past six months.

I have spent a number of Sundays in Elim churches in Wales and experienced their typically warm and welcoming atmosphere.  Holyhead was certainly no exception.
