Who we are
Merthyr. The beautiful Victorian church of St Martin and St Enfael in the old parish of Merthyr near Carmarthen is keeping alive a Christian tradition unbroken since the days of saints and martyrs. A Dark Age settlement became the site of a mediaeval, monastic outpost and, for more than 480 years, a thriving parish church. Merthyr is part of the Brosanclêr Local Ministry Area in the St Davids Diocese of the Church in Wales. All services are bilingual.

Listen, my friend!
Listen, my friend! Your helplessness is your best prayer. It calls from your heart to the heart of God with greater effect than all your uttered pleas. He hears it from the very moment that you are seized with helplessness, and He becomes actively engaged at once in hearing and answering the prayer of your helplessness.
