Since opening our doors in 2011, right up to the present day we have had some incredible highs and lows. One truth that stands out is that through the determination and strength of our team, not only have we built the entire facility from scratch but we are still here doing what we love, day in and day out. We have had a huge amount of success stories over the years, but one that really stands out is the debut of our first UFC fighter, Phil Harris. Following in Phil’s footsteps there are almost too many great achievements to mention but the one thing we are sure of; there will be many more to come. One of them could even be you! Everybody has to start somewhere, right? From teaching out of community centres to where we are today, the journey has been an exciting one and we cannot wait for what’s in store in the years to come!

orn in Tokushima Prefecture on the island of Shikoku, Japan. He was the son of a local school teacher called Toshizo Abbe, who was a kendo instructor, and his wife, Kote Abbe.He started Judo at Busen, trained hard under Korei Isogai and in his first year he became the youngest student to gain his Yondan (4th dan) in Judo. Kenshiro never lost a fight. In the autumn of his second year was awarded his Godan (5th dan). In May 1935 he took part in the 5th dan division championship and defeated the great Masahiko Kimura. All of Abbe’s success so far led him to become arrogant which was something which he admitted himself. Henry Ellis Sensei reported the following story which demonstrated Abbe’s attitude at the time but also documents his first meeting with Morihei Ueshiba, how Abbe Sensei was accepted to train under Ueshiba Sensei
Beulah is an outward looking church, interested in Rhiwbina and concerned about the wider world. We describe our style of church life as liberal but lively encouraging participation in worship in which we mix traditional hymnody and new music from the world church. We encourage a thoughtful faith, questioning and exploring together what we understand the Bible and faith means today. We have adopted a range of worship patterns. Our main service is Family Worship on a Sunday morning. This gathers all ages together, there is a Junior Church catering for all ages and we have a crèche. The service lasts an hour and a quarter or so and there is coffee after the service. In addition to the service on a Sunday there is one other mid-week service. Meeting Point is primarily a gathering where we share readings for the week and pastoral news. Beulah Church affirms that Christ welcomed all into his company without exception. He did not judge who people were, though he challenged how people behaved towards each other. We believe God calls all kinds of people to work and witness in his name and we want all to feel welcome and included in all aspects of Beulah’s life and leadership. We acknowledge that we have not always lived up to Christ’s standard of warmth and welcome. But, we testify that when his Spirit is at work amongst us we are a people offering care and compassion to all-comers. In 2018 six URC congregations agreed to form The Cardiff and Penarth United Reformed Church Pastorate. The other five churches are: Bethesda URC Tongwynlais, Canton Uniting Church, City URC, Elfed Avenue United Church, and Parkminster URC. Following the URC call process we are delighted to welcome the Reverends Martha McInnes and David Dean as Ministers to the Pastorate. Thus we welcome you to Beulah and invite your contribution to the life of faith here in Beulah and beyond.
