If you have any needs during the conference, please don’t hesitate to visit the welcome desk (open 9 till 9 every day), give one of the EMW team a call on 0800 4647676, or speak to one of the stewards.

The programme is focused around the morning Bible Readings and the evening services where we come together to worship God and hear his Word preached. During the conference, you will also have an opportunity to take part in many different meetings, events and fellowship groups all giving an opportunity to reflect on what you’ve heard and to think biblically through some of the issues facing us today (details below).

Alternatively, you may just prefer to relax with your family enjoying the beautiful west Wales coast or spend time having a drink at one of Aberystwyth’s many coffee shops with friends, both old and new, reflecting on all you’ve heard. It’s your holiday, so it really is up to you.
