Y Trydydd Sul ar Bymtheg wedi'r Drindod
Y Sul hwn, a thrwy gydol yr wythnos rydym yn gweddïo am:
Bro Ardudwy
Gweddïwn dros:
- yr apwyntiad o Arweinydd newydd i'r Ardal Weinidogaeth
- Sue ac Owain, Wardeiniaid yr Ardal Weinidogaeth, yr is-wardeiniaid iddynt gymryd yr Ardal Weinidogaeth wrth iddynt gymryd rhagor o gyfrifoldeb
- y Deon Bro, Y Parchedig Miriam Beecroft wrth iddi wylio dros yr Ardal Weinidogaeth
- teulu, ffrindiau a phawb sy'n galaru dros y Parchedig Pam Odam ar ôl ei marwolaeth wythnos diwethaf
Oddi wrth ein Hesgob Cynorthwyol
Rwy’n ddiolchgar i’r Parchg Miriam Beecroft ac i staff a phlant Ysgol Bro Hyddgen Machynlleth, yn ogystal ag i Fanc Bwyd ein Cadeirlan am eu cymorth gyda’r neges cynhaeaf diweddar. Mae ymgysylltu â’r rhai sydd fwyaf agored i niwed yn y cyfnod ansefydlog ac anodd hwn yn rhan greiddiol o’n disgyblaeth a’n offrwm Cristnogol. Os ydyn ni’n gobeithio y bydd Duw yn ateb gweddi, rhaid inni fod yn fodlon bod yn rhan o’r ymateb dwyfol. Mae'r Archesgob Andrew yn ein gwahodd i wneud hyn yn y gwahoddiad 'Anrheg Nadolig'.
Yr awgrym yw bod pob cynulleidfa yn paratoi 10 bocs (o leiaf) o bethau ymolchi (sebon, brwsys dannedd, cynhyrchion misglwyf ac ati). Efallai y byddwn yn dewis dosbarthu'r rhain ein hunain neu drwy ein banciau bwyd lleol, lloches i fenywod neu adnodd cymunedol arall. Y gobaith yw y bydd rhain yn barod i’w dosbarthu erbyn diwedd Tachwedd, felly nawr yw’r amser i ddechrau casglu eitemau a bocsys. Mater i bob eglwys yw dewis maint a chynnwys eu blychau. Efallai y byddwch chi'n tynnu lluniau o'r anrhegion rydych chi'n eu paratoi a allai helpu i ysbrydoli eraill wrth iddyn nhw baratoi eu rhoddion.
Diolch am eich parodrwydd i ymwneud â hyn ac am holl haelioni gweinidogaeth ein heglwysi lleol.
Codi Lleisiau dros Gyfiawnder Hinsawdd: Cyn y sgyrsiau COP27 sy'n dechrau ddydd Llun 7 Tachwedd gofynnir i eglwysi ledled y DU sydd â chlychau ystyried canu'r rhain ddydd Sadwrn 5 Tachwedd am 5pm am 15-30 munud. Yn flaenorol pan ddigwyddodd hyn cyn COP26 gwnaeth eglwysi lleol eu trefniadau eu hunain i roi cyhoeddusrwydd i hyn yn lleol. Am fwy o wybodaeth cysylltwch â: Trefnydd Gweithredu Hinsawdd Cymorth Cristnogol, Edward Gildea www.edwardgildea.co.uk

Dros eich gweddïau: Rydym yn hysbysebu am Gyfarwyddwr Addysg i weithio ar draws esgobaethau Bangor a Llanelwy. Mae’r wybodaeth a’r disgrifiad swydd ar gael ar ein gwefannau. Rydym hefyd yn hysbysebu am Arweinwyr Ardaloedd Gweinidogaeth ym Mro Ardudwy a Bro Eryri.
Gweddïwch dros y prosesau recriwtio ac anogwch unrhyw ymgeiswyr tebygol i edrych ar y wybodaeth ac archwilio a ellir eu galw i weithio gyda ni.
Dduw haelionus Diolch i ti am ein galw i rannu yng ngwaith dy Deyrnas. Helpa ni i gydnabod a rhannu dy roddion gyda chalonnau agored a chariad diolchgar. Cadw ni yn llawen yn ein bywoliaeth, ac yn addfwyn yn ein perthynasau fel y gallwn lefaru yn garedig, ymddwyn yn ddewr a hau dy dangnefedd ymhlith dy holl blant. Amen

Cofio COP26 - Cymunedau Eglwys
Wrth i’r cenhedloedd baratoi i gyfarfod yn Yr Aifft y mis nesaf ar gyfer COP27, mae’r myfyrdodau misol hyn bellach yn diwryn i ben, er bod ein galwad i ofalu am ein planed yn parhau. Trwy gydol y flwyddyn eleni, fe fuon ni’n edrych ar sawl mater yn codi o COP26 ac yn rhoi ystyriaeth iddyn nhw o bersbectif gweddigar. Maen nhw hgefyd wedi gofyn inni feddwl ychydig mwy am y rhan y gallwn ninnau ei chwarae i leihau effeithiau newid hinsawdd yn ein bywydau o ddydd i ddydd.

The Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity
This Sunday and through the week we pray for:
Bro Ardudwy
Our prayers are asked for:
- the appointment of a new Leader to the Ministry Area
- Sue and Owain, Wardens of the Ministry Area, the sub-wardens to take on the Ministry Area as they take on more responsibility
- the Community Dean, The Reverend Miriam Beecroft as she watches over the Ministry Area
- the family, friends and all who grieve for the Reverend Pam Odam following her death last week
From our Assistant Bishop
I am grateful to the Revd Miriam Beecroft and to the staff and children of Ysgol Bro Hyddgen Machynlleth, as well as to our Cathedral Foodbank for their help with the recent harvest message. Engagement with those who are most vulnerable in these unstable and difficult times is a core part of our discipleship and Christian offering. If we hope that God will answer prayer, we must be willing to be part of the divine response. Archbishop Andrew invites us to do this in the 'Gift for Christmas' invitation.
The suggestion is that each congregation prepares 10 boxes (at least) of toiletries (soaps, toothbrushes, sanitary products etc). We might choose to distribute these ourselves or via our local foodbanks, women's refuge or other community resource. The hope is that these will be ready to distribute by the end of November, so now is a good time to start collecting items and boxes. It is up to each church to choose the size and content of their boxes. You might take pictures of the gifts you prepare which could help inspire others as they prepare their gifts.
Thank you for you willingness to engage with this and for all the generosity of the ministry of our local churches.
Raising voices for Climate Justice: In advance of the COP27 talks that start on Monday 7 November, churches across the UK that have bells are asked to consider ringing these on Saturday 5 November at 5pm for 15-30 minutes. Previously when this happened in advance of COP26 local churches made their own arrangements to publicise this locally. For more information please contact: Christian Aid, Climate Action Organiser Edward Gildea, www.edwardgildea.co.uk
Archdeacon Mones Farah, from St David's Diocese has arranged a Zoom session on Liberation Spirituality with Christian Activist and engaging thinker, Shane Claibourne. If you would like to join this on Tuesday 18 October at 7pm please contact Archdeacon Mones at: archdeacon.farah@cinw.org.uk
For your prayers: We are advertising for a Director of Education to work across the dioceses of Bangor and St Asaph. The information and job description is available on our websites. We are also advertsing for Ministry Area Leaders in Bro Ardudwy and Bro Eryri.
Please do pray for the recruitment processes and encourage any likely candidates to look at the information and explore whether they might be called to work with us.
Generous God, Thank you for calling us to share in the work of your Kingdom. Help us to recognize and share your gifts with open hearts and grateful love. Keep us joyful in our living, and gentle in our relationships so that we might speak kindly, act bravely and sow your peace among all your children. Amen

Remembering COP26 - Church Communities
As nations prepare to gather in Egypt next month for COP27, these monthly reflections now draw to an end, although our call to care for the planet continues. Throughout this year we have looked at a number of issues arising from COP26 and considering them from a prayerful perspective. They have also asked us to think a little more about the part we can play to reduce the effects of climate change in our day to day lives.
Over the next few weeks we will be praying for:
16 October
Bro Ardudwy

Bro Ystumanner
