Welcome to Albany Church, Haverfordwest
Albany (United Reformed and Methodist) Church
To Worship God and Serve the Community
Albany Church aims to be a welcoming fellowship and is situated in the St Thomas Green area of Haverfordwest.
It is the oldest non-conformist church in Pembrokeshire, with a history dating back to 1638, and sits within the United Reformed and Methodist traditions.
Albany Church feels blessed in recent times and is a growing fellowship exploring new forms of worship. Some of our worship remains traditional in nature but we have also embraced new forms such as Cafe Church. We love learning new hymns and you will find a wide mix of both traditional and more modern hymns and songs.
We meet weekly on a Sunday morning at 11.ooam and we will be delighted if you would like to join us.
Once a month, we have a Communion Service on a Wednesday Morning at 10.30am
All our services are also available via Zoom; the Meeting ID is: 491 081 2259 and the Passcode: MethUrc
'Everyone is welcome' at our Communion Table.
Please contact Rev Hugh-John on 07899-783807 or email him at hughjohn.wilson@methodistwales.org.uk for any further information.
