Almighty God,
as we stand at the foot of the cross of your Son,
help us to see and know your love for us,
so that in humility, love and joy
we may place at his feet
all that we have and all that we are;
through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.+
Community prayer, from Celebrating Common Prayer
Hollalluog Dduw,
wrth i ni sefyll wrth droed croes dy Fab,
cynorthwya ni i ddirnad ac adnabod dy gariad atom,
fel y gallwn mewn gwyleidd-dra, cariad a llawenydd
osod wrth ei draed
y cwbl sydd gennym, a’r cwbl yr ydym,
trwy Iesu Grist ein Harglwydd. Amen.+

Tymawr Convent
Croeso, welcome to our website. Discover here who we are and our religious life as a monastic community of contemplative nuns living in the Welsh countryside outside Monmouth, South Wales. We welcome individual guests and groups for retreats and quiet days, with a choice of fully-catered or self-catering accommodation. You may also explore your own vocation for a life of prayer by becoming an Associate or an Oblate of the Society of the Sacred Cross at Tymawr Convent and by committing to live with us as an Alongsider or a professed Sister.
Please note that the convent and grounds will be closed to visitors from January the 13th until the beginning of May as we complete essential building work. Guests are still welcome for the Eucharist (but not the Offices); please email Sr. Elizabeth at to let us know that you are coming. Please note that you will need to park on the Sacristy drive and enter by the Sacristy door, which has three steps. If you normally see a sister for spiritual accompaniment, please contact them directly to make suitable arrangements. We look forward to re-opening in the Summer and will update the website with details around Easter services at a later date.
