A group of churches in Penarth and surrounding areas have teamed up to bring Messy Church to Penarth Beach for fun family activities.

Messy Church is recognised across the world and the scheme will come to Penarth Beach on Thursday, February 24 between 15:00 – 17:00.

Guests can expect a range of activities including a beach clean-up, pebble crafts, and even a chance to build a boat out of the beach pebbles.

Reverend Steve Lock, 55, organiser and senior engagement worker at Llandaff Diocese, told Nub News: "It's an opportunity to engage children with faith and target families who wouldn't necessarily come to church every Sunday morning.

"We're taking elements of worship and bringing the church outdoors to engage with children who have become more curious about spirituality with recent events."

Stol Coffee will also be on hand to offer coffee and tasty treats. Parents and guardians are asked to stay with their children for the duration of the event.

If you would like to go, register here and join in all the fun.
