Am ganrifoedd mae'r eglwys wedi cael ei hariannu gan Noddwyr a oedd yn dirfeddianwyr cyfoethog ac yn ddiwydianwyr.

Nid yw hyn yn wir bellach ac mae'r elusen hon yn ymgais i 
godi'r arian sydd ei angen i gefnogi strategaeth yr Esgob
ar gyfer yr Esgobaeth a thrwy hynny cefnogi ein
heglwysi a'n cymunedau lleol.

Bydd llwyddant yr elusen yn galliogi yn ymddredolwur i wella a gyfoethogif bywyd esgobaeth a rydym yn gobeithio byddwch yn medru ein cyfnogi. Diolch

For centuries the church has been funded by patrons who 
were wealthy landowners and industrialists. 

This is no longer the case, and this charity is an attempt
 to raise the monies needed to support the Bishop’s 
strategy for the Diocese and thus support our local 
churches and communities.

The success of the charity will enable the trustees to enhance and enrich the life of this diocese. And we hope that you will be able to support and enrich the life of this Diocese and we hope that you will be able to support us. Thank you. 

Nicholas C P Griffin
Chair of Trustees

Fel y 129fain olynydd i Dewi Sant Esgob Tyddewi, rwy’n eithriadol o ddiolchgar am bopeth yr ydym ni yn yr Esgobaeth heddiw wedi’i etifeddu gan y rhai sydd wedi mynd o’n blaenau ac rwy’n benderfynol ein bod ni, yn ein tro, yn trosglwyddo i’r rhai sy’n dod ar ein holau, yr holl gyfoeth yr ydym wedi bod yn fendithiol..
 
Mae'r Noddwyr o’dd erbyn yn Elusen a sefydlwyd i gefnogi cenhadaeth a gweinidogaeth cymunedau eglwysi lleol Esgobaeth Tyddewi a bydd yr holl arian a godir yn cael ei ddefnyddio i gefnogi eu bywyd a'u gwaith.

Rwy'n falch iawn i ofyn chi ddod yn rhan ohono.

As the 129th successor to St David, I am exceptionally grateful for all that we in the Diocese today have inherited from those who have                                                                               gone before us and I am determined that we, in turn, pass to those who come after us, all the riches that we have been most blessed to receive.

The Patrons is a charity set up to support the mission and ministry of the local church communities of the Diocese of St Davids and all monies raised will be used to support their life and work

I am proud and delighted to ask you to become a part of it.
