The Wesley Caerphilly 90th Anniversary Felting Triptych depicts the flow of people from Wesley and the other Methodist Churches in and around Caerphilly that have closed over the decades since Wesley opened. The names of these churches are on the banners. There are members of Wesley today who either came from those churches or whose families were members of those churches, and Wesley today owes a debt of gratitude to these church communities who gave their yesterdays for the church’s tomorrow.
Loving God, as Wesley Caerphilly celebrates its 90th Anniversary today pour your blessings upon all the members of the church as we give thanks for those who have gone before us in faith, our brothers and sisters in Christ, our parents and grandparents, our neighbours and friends. Direct our hearts and minds towards your Son Jesus Christ, our brother, our cornerstone, our Lord and our Light. Let us not think of ourselves as the source of power and vision but turn to you through whom all things are made according to your will. Amen
