Churches In Aberystwyth
This is just a quick summary of the main churches that students attend in Aberystwyth. The Aberystwyth CU
website (www.abercu.co.uk) has more details but on Thursday 24h of September we are hosting a ‘Grub
Crawl’. This event will take you around 5 of these churches and provide you with a 5 course meal, show you where they are
and give you a bit of information about each of them so hopefully you’ll be better equipped to choose which one church
you will attend during your stay in Aber!
St Mike’s Church has two student pastors (Ben and Mel), who work with students but all of the churches have their own
individual student ministries too. All of the Churches provide many opportunities in different ministries (youth, children’s,
elderly, homeless etc.) for service depending on your suiting and your own individual gifts. We really encourage you to
have a look around them and settle in one church as soon as you can in Aber.

Holy Trinity Church:
Holy Trinity is a more traditional Anglican church. A few students regularly attend there, and it suits very well those who
are looking to go to a smaller Anglican church than St. Mike's and still enjoy good preaching and fellowship within a smaller
congregation.
Main Sunday services: 8am, 11am and 6pm

St Mike’s is a lively Anglican church. Worshipping God is central to life at St Mike's. We combine new modern styles of
worship with traditional styles and each age group in the church is represented in the leading of worship. The Church
leadership is totally committed to preaching, teaching, and, under the influence of the Holy Spirit, attempting to live the
Bible and its commands.
