2023 Advent Calendar

The 2023 St Dyfnog's Online Advent Calendar is now up and running - at least, Day One works! I wasn't able to make any new recordings this year, so these are all repeats from previous years (at least you all have the advantage of looking a few years younger!) Hope you enjoy them.

 So sorry it's been such a long time since I posted here. If anybody has any news items they'd like included on the website, please email them to me - kath-b@btconnect.com - and I'll make sure they appear. Kath MD

Advent Calendar

I'm starting to think that this year's Advent Calendar just isn't meant to be ... 

Power failure in the church on the first Sunday's recording session, so we did it all by candlelight (which was very pretty!) only for me to find when I tried to transfer the clips to my pc for editing that the SD card had become corrupted so I couldn't access the files. 

Take two, the following Sunday, with my spare SD card ... which turned out to have very much less capacity than the old one, so I ran out of space; however I had five clips to make a start with ... only to discover that my pc, new since last year's Advent Calendar and running Windows 11, won't run my video editing software ... 

Unearth old pc, heave sigh of relief that it still works, edit the five clips and upload ... we have lift-off! Or so I thought ... until the weather took a hand ... 

So I'm afraid most of the remaining days on this year's calendar will be repeats from previous years. Very many thanks to those who recorded twice, and apologies to those who had found something to read, but which I won't now have time to record/edit/upload. Please save for next year!

Don't you just love modern technology ... not to mention the British weather ...

Merry Christmas, everyone! Kath

Ash Wednesday service cancelled

At this morning's Church Committee meeting, it was decided that there should not after all be a Eucharist Service for Ash Wednesday, which falls next Wednesday, March 2nd: the weather forecast for next week is uincertain, with a possiblity of snow, and the Committee felt that people would be reluctant to venture out after dark.
