What is Wild Church?
Nature, Community & Faith
Wild Church is a welcoming space for people of all ages to explore both creation and the Creator behind it.
Set in the stunning outdoors of Gower, it’s a time to slow down, breathe in the beauty of nature,
and connect with God through creativity, reflection, and community.
Whether you're walking, crafting, or simply being present,
Wild Church invites you to discover the Christian faith in a fresh way.
This month
Join us this August for breakfast on the beach.
Join us for a a walk to Pwll Du Bay for breakfast on the beach.
Key Information
- When: Saturday, 22nd of August 2026 at 10:30am.
- Who: Everyone is welcome. Please note that the route descends into and climbs back out of Pwll Du, with some steep sections along the way. As a result, this walk is not suitable for those with certain accessibility needs. Please consider your own fitness level before attending.
- Dogs: Well-behaved dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead at all times. This is out of consideration for those with health concerns, as well as participants who may be uncomfortable around dogs. There also sections with livestock on the cliffs. The terrain is steep and rocky in places, so please consider whether it is suitable for your dog before bringing them.
- Footwear: Sturdy trainers are highly recommended due to the uneven, steep, and rocky terrain.
As we get to Pwll Du we will take part in a creative activity using materials found on the beach. Participants are invited to create a simple picture, symbol, or word in the sand using shells, pebbles, seaweed, or driftwood. Afterward, we'll take time to quietly view each other's creations and, for those who wish, share reflections with the group.
Please bring your own breakfast, cooking equipment, and anything else you need for the morning, as no food or equipment will be provided.
As you listen to the waves and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, take a moment to reflect and connect.

“Encouraging a child to go outside in all weather builds resilience, but more importantly it saves them from spending their life merely tolerating the ‘bad’ days in favour of a handful of ‘good’ ones – a life of endless expectations and conditions where happiness hinges on sunshine.” – Nicolette Sowder
