This site is about the churches and parishes in the Deanery of Dyffryn Clwyd in the Diocese of St. Asaph in North Wales, which is one of the six diocese of the Church in Wales. The Deanery forms a rural, mainly agricultural area centred on the market town of Ruthin. The thirteen parishes are served by three priests, one deacon and four readers, assisted by retired clerics.

The parishes of the deanery have worked together for a number of years and shared worship takes place. The clerics meet every Monday morning for prayer and also regular chapter meetings. The Deanery Conference meets four times a year and is taking an increasing role in co-ordinating resources from all the parishes and planning worship and events for the deanery as a whole and looking at planning for the future.

Within the Deanery there is a variety of styles of worship in English and in Welsh. These range from traditional Anglican worship to informal and modern worship. We hope you will find this website helpful and informative and that you will visit our churches to worship with us. Whichever church you visit you can be assured of a warm welcome.
