Welcome to the Monmouth Marches Ministry Area Website
Today's Monmouth Marches Ministry Area inherits a thousand years and more of Christian history. Our churches are ancient centres of worship and 21st century resources for our communities. Some have been reshaped by generous Victorians. Others remain simple chapels built for monks before Henrey VIII dissolved the monasteries. All are beautiful in their different ways. Please visit them and share in their beauty and peace when you can: access can be arranged by using the places page on this website. And we have created video tours of some of them, which you can find on the resources page of this website.
Monmouth Marches Ministry Area Inauguration Service
Friends from the 19 churches of the Ministry Area gathered when Bishop Cherry officiated at a service in which the Monmouth Marches Ministry Area and its 19 parishes became a single benefice. The Reverend Timothy Dack was installed as Team Rector and all priests holding the Bishop's license were relicensed to the Ministry Area.
