4 Churches Walk or crawl (16 1/2 miles)

At 10am September 9th Rev Rhys Morgan the Priest in Charge of 4 churches in the upper towi valley will with several supporters be taking a long walk between all the churches in his care on the first day of the European Heritage Days t scheme.
He will start from Cynghordy Church at 10am Sept 9th and continue to Ystrad Ffin the most remote church in his care returning to Rhandirmwyn and then the last leg to St Michael's Cilycwm.
Rev Morgan said "I think keeping churches open is so very important in communicating the Christian Gospel and the areas's rich history. I saw this weekend as not just to open the churches to visitors which we do anyway, but obviously some of my Churches are very old buildings and need a considerable amount of money to keep them in good condition and also the cost of providing a priest in this part of the world. The £600 that I have raised with a fortnight to go before the walk seems to me to be proof of the goodwill and support that churches still have in this day and age."
