Serving at the sanctuary
Noddfa means refuge / sanctuary and on
June 14 approximately 150 people made
their way up one of Wales’s eastern valleys to
the village of Abersychan and the church of
Noddfa as John Funnell was recognised as
part-time pastor of the church which had
been without a full-time pastor for two years.
John came to faith in 2009. Soon after, his
wife Harriet, having seen the complete difference in John, also came to faith. From the start John devoured good books and enrolled
in various distance learning programmes.
