Cardiff Churches Nightshelter Last night is on Sat 17 March.  It has been very tiring yet a real blessing and privilege to offer this ministry to our homeless friends.  If you help in the mornings, the nights or the evenings please feel free to come along next week to say a farewell and happy St Patrick’s day to our guests.
