-The singing

-comes from Seion Chapel, Llanrwst.

0:00:360:00:39

-We'll meet two women who are active

-with local Sunday schools.

0:00:400:00:45

-We'll also hear performances from

-Meinir Wyn Roberts and Huw Llywelyn.

0:00:460:00:51

-Trystan Lewis conducts,

-with Rhys Roberts at the organ.

0:00:530:00:56

-The first hymn is...

0:00:570:00:58

-..Arglwydd Nef A Daear

-Ar Dy Orseddfainc Gref.

0:00:580:01:01

-I'm in the Sunday school

-at Seion Chapel now.

0:03:200:03:23

-The supervisor is Gwenda Jones.

0:03:230:03:26

-Who's this?

0:03:270:03:28

-Who is he?

0:03:290:03:30

-Who is he?

-

-Jesus.

0:03:300:03:31

-Jesus. OK, we'll forget

-about this man for a minute.

0:03:320:03:36

-Who are these?

0:03:360:03:37

-The disciples.

0:03:370:03:39

-The Sunday school

-is clearly flourishing, Gwenda.

0:03:390:03:43

-I'm sure your experience

-as a teacher is a big help.

0:03:440:03:47

-I was a secondary school teacher,

-to tell you the truth,

0:03:480:03:51

-But I've raised five children too.

0:03:510:03:54

-So, I'm used to children,

-and I also like working with them.

0:03:540:03:58

-How difficult is it to keep children

-of this age interested?

0:03:580:04:03

-You need a lot of activities.

0:04:040:04:06

-We start with a story,

-with lots of gesticulating.

0:04:060:04:09

-Sometimes, we act or sing

-or do handiwork.

0:04:100:04:14

-For a change, we'll have colouring,

-which they like.

0:04:140:04:18

-At the end,

-the mothers have a cuppa...

0:04:190:04:21

-..and the children

-have a drink and a biscuit.

0:04:210:04:24

-That goes down well.

0:04:240:04:26

-The support of the parents

-must be important.

0:04:260:04:29

-They're fantastic.

0:04:290:04:31

-They truly do give us 100% support.

0:04:310:04:34

-We have Llanast y Llan meetings

-from time to time...

0:04:340:04:38

-..and they come to those as well.

0:04:380:04:41

-What about the youth club

-you run for 11 to 14-year-olds?

0:04:410:04:47

-Most aren't chapel members

-and don't attend other chapels.

0:04:470:04:51

-Some go to other chapels

-but come to the club.

0:04:510:04:54

-Most don't go to any chapel...

0:04:540:04:56

-..but they love coming here

-on two Sundays a month.

0:04:560:05:00

-We play games...

0:05:010:05:02

-..and the minister has

-five quiet minutes to contemplate.

0:05:020:05:06

-We talk about Jesus and share

-stories and experiences with them.

0:05:070:05:12

-They are very good listeners.

0:05:120:05:14

-We finish off with a meal.

0:05:150:05:17

-I cook that,

-sometimes with their help...

0:05:180:05:21

-..or whoever else is here.

0:05:210:05:23

-They love it.

0:05:230:05:24

-You've retired,

-so you don't have to do this.

0:05:240:05:27

-What kind of pleasure

-does it give you?

0:05:270:05:30

-I get a lot of pleasure out of it.

0:05:300:05:32

-Actually, I missed working

-with secondary school children.

0:05:320:05:37

-I used to teach Biology.

0:05:370:05:38

-I taught at Sunday school for years

-at Scotland Street Chapel.

0:05:390:05:43

-The teachers were good

-but old-fashioned.

0:05:430:05:46

-No pictures, no colouring.

0:05:460:05:48

-Just books with a picture

-of Jesus in the boat.

0:05:480:05:51

-We're all familiar with them.

0:05:510:05:53

-There was a time when we weren't

-allowed to put anything on the wall.

0:05:540:05:59

-Now, there are lots of pictures up,

-the children's work.

0:05:590:06:03

-We try to make the place

-as colourful as we can.

0:06:030:06:06

-We can adapt the room as we want,

-which is lovely.

0:06:070:06:10

-Gwenda, thank you very much.

0:12:150:12:25

-Next, we'll sing a hymn

-by William Williams Pantycelyn.

0:12:280:12:33

-It's a hymn

-that's full of confidence.

0:12:330:12:36

-"Enynnaist ynof dan,

-perffeithiaf dan y nef

0:12:360:12:39

-"Ni all y moroedd mawr

-ddiffodd mono ef

0:12:390:12:42

-"Dy lais, dy wedd, a gweld dy waed

-sy'n troi 'ngelynion dan fy nhraed."

0:12:420:12:47

-We've already met one pillar

-of the Sunday school at Seion.

0:15:310:15:35

-Maureen Hughes is another.

0:15:350:15:37

-We've seen the children...

0:15:380:15:39

-..but there's a Sunday school

-for adults at the chapel as well.

0:15:400:15:44

-That follows the service,

-at around 11.15am.

0:15:440:15:49

-We assemble

-at the rear of the chapel.

0:15:500:15:54

-There's one class of nine members

-and they're very loyal to the cause.

0:15:540:16:00

-Like me, each one

-has had the privilege...

0:16:010:16:04

-..of attending Sunday school

-as children.

0:16:050:16:08

-I'd like to pay tribute to my Sunday

-school teachers in Aberangell...

0:16:080:16:14

-..for sowing the seed within me

-of an interest in Sunday school.

0:16:140:16:20

-What kind of discussions do you have

-in the Sunday school?

0:16:200:16:24

-We follow the syllabus

-that's published in Y Goleuad.

0:16:240:16:29

-This year,

-it's a journey through the Psalms...

0:16:300:16:33

-..prepared by

-the Reverend Doctor Huw John Hughes.

0:16:340:16:37

-We might not meet every Sunday,

-because of other activities...

0:16:380:16:42

-..but they are extremely loyal.

0:16:420:16:44

-One thing we do is set homework.

0:16:450:16:48

-I choose one or two words

-linked to the lesson.

0:16:480:16:54

-Last Sunday,

-they were 'hymn' and 'preaching'.

0:16:550:16:59

-We then look for verses in the Bible

-that contain those words.

0:16:590:17:05

-Everyone does their homework.

0:17:050:17:08

-Before we read,

-I'll ask for your homework.

0:17:090:17:14

-You've been looking for verses...

0:17:150:17:19

-..that contain

-either 'hymn' or 'preaching'.

0:17:190:17:22

-'Preaching' from Luke 11, verse 32.

0:17:230:17:27

-"The men of Nineveh shall rise up...

0:17:280:17:31

-..in the judgment

-with this generation...

0:17:310:17:34

-I notice that several chapel members

-have won Gee Medals over the years.

0:17:350:17:40

-People must live long here

-and give long service to the chapel.

0:17:400:17:44

-They're faithful to the chapel

-in every sense of the word.

0:17:440:17:49

-I have to thank them for that.

0:17:490:17:51

-We have three who hope to receive

-a Gee Medal in September...

0:17:510:17:57

-..when the service takes place

-here at Seion Chapel.

0:17:570:18:01

-What is the value

-of Sunday school...

0:18:020:18:05

-..for both children and adults

-in the world as it is today?

0:18:050:18:09

-I think it's very valuable.

0:18:090:18:11

-We can talk,

-either one-to-one or as a class.

0:18:110:18:16

-Comfort is important

-in this day and age.

0:18:170:18:20

-We feel that we are united,

-and there is strength in unity.

0:18:210:18:26

-Maureen, many thanks

-for our conversation.

0:18:270:18:30

-We now turn to our soloist,

-Huw Llywelyn.

0:18:300:18:33

-Here he is to sing I Ti Dymunwn Fyw.

0:18:330:18:36

-# I ti dymunwn fyw, O Iesu da

0:18:450:18:53

-# Ar lwybrau esmwyth oes,

-dan heulwen ha'

0:18:530:19:01

-# Neu os daw'r niwl

-# Ond at y groes,

-# I'm rhoi fy hunan i'th ewyllys di

-# Rho im y fraint o fyw

0:20:420:20:47

-# Pob dydd i'th glod #

0:20:470:21:00

-As the programme draws to a close,

-may I thank you for your company?

0:21:010:21:06

-The final hymn is...

0:21:060:21:08

-..Duw Mawr Y Nefoedd Faith,

-Mor Bur, Mor Dirion Yw.

0:21:080:21:11

-The hymn-tune is Bryn Hywel.

0:21:110:21:13

-From us all, goodbye.
