Llanfwrog Church is situated on the top
of a hill on the western edge of the market town of Ruthin. It still retains
a distinct rural atmosphere and there are extensive views of the Vale of
Clwyd and the mountains of the Clwydian range from the churchyard.
Christian worship has taken place on this site since the
6th century, when Mwrog (a little known Celtic saint) first proclaimed the
Gospel in this part of the world. parts of the present church tae from the
13th century. The building has been restored many times in its long history,
the latest restoration being in 1999, when the church was made more 'user
friendly' for the new century.
Llanfwrog is a small and friendly church and its worship
is in an informal style and the singing is led by a small choir, who
occasionally sing their own choral items. The style of music however makes
it easy for everyone to join in.
