The church dates back to 1848 and meets in Bethel Chapel in the village of Laleston, just to the west of Bridgend. Although an old chapel building, we have been involved in a program of renovation and development so that we now have comfortable facilities for our church activities.

We welcome all to our services. The services usually last about an hour, with hymns old and new, bible readings, prayer and some time looking at the bible.

We have two deacons and one elder, who is the full-time pastor of the church. We are a partner of Affinity, a church-centred network of many hundreds of Bible-centred churches and Christian agencies throughout Britain and Ireland. If you would like to get in touch, here are our contact details:
