Tabor #church decided to use their building to create a new #community hub – and have been blessed by doing so.

Now as you walk into the vestry of this North Pemb church you are welcomed with a visual feast quite unlike any other #vestry in Wales…

The Orthodox Church Of Ukraine has given permission to parishes to hold #Christmas services on the #GregorianCalendar's 25th December - the same day as western Europe - if they wish. The #church uses the #JulianCalendar which has more leap years, so the Julian 25th December falls on the Gregorian 7th January. The move reflects attitudes towards Russia & Russian culture.

Imagine the #vestry meeting that has to make the decision!
