Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair

Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair is a Welsh-language Christian publisher operating as an imprint of Cyngor Ysgolion Sul ac Addysg Gristnogol Cymru (the Welsh Sunday Schools and Christian Education Council), a registered charity representing the main Welsh denominations in Wales. The Council was established in 1966 to promote Sunday school work through the medium of Welsh, and Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair was founded in 1992 with the aim of publishing and promoting Welsh-language Christian books. The press is based at Ael y Bryn, Chwilog, Pwllheli, Gwynedd, in north Wales, and its registered charity number is 525766. Since its founding, Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair has published more than a thousand Welsh-language titles and over a million books in print. It maintains a steady publishing programme, issuing more than 20 titles annually. The work is directed by a Publishing Panel that meets regularly and includes representatives from all the denominations that are part of the Council, while day-to-day management is handled by Aled Davies, the Press Director, with Rhys Llwyd responsible for typesetting and design. The press works closely with the Welsh Books Council (Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru), which is responsible for its marketing and distribution and provides grants for authors, editors, typesetting and production. The list covers colour books for children and young people, colouring and puzzle books, colour Bibles for all ages, prayer and service books, materials for children's and youth clubs, and training handbooks for Sunday school teachers. A central priority is ensuring suitable textbooks for children, young people and adults in Wales, guided by a Textbooks Panel. In addition to books, Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair offers a wide selection of Christmas cards, Christian greeting cards and special pastoral cards, as well as colour leaflets and posters for churches and Sunday schools, and children's gifts such as mugs, pens, wallets and pencils. Under the chairmanship of Rheinallt Thomas, the Press has a publishing panel that meets regularly to discuss its annual publishing programme. Its titles are available through any local Welsh or Christian bookshop and can be ordered online via www.gwales.com, with many titles also available from general merchandise websites such as Amazon. The publisher thus serves as a key supplier of Welsh-language Christian literature and educational resources for churches, Sunday schools and families across Wales.

Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair is the publishing arm of Cyngor Ysgolion Sul ac Addysg Gristnogol Cymru (the Welsh Sunday Schools and Christian Education Council), a registered charity that represents the main Welsh denominations in Wales. The Council itself was established in 1966 to promote Sunday school work through the medium of Welsh. Building on that mission, Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair was founded in 1992 with the specific aim of publishing and promoting Welsh-language Christian books. The press is based at Ael y Bryn, Chwilog, Pwllheli, Gwynedd, in north Wales, and operates under registered charity number 525766. Over the decades since its founding, the press has published more than a thousand Welsh-language titles and over a million books in print. It maintains a regular publishing programme, issuing more than 20 titles each year. Direction comes from a Publishing Panel that meets regularly and includes representatives from all the denominations within the Council, while day-to-day operations are managed by Aled Davies, the Press Director, with Rhys Llwyd handling typesetting and design. The press works closely with the Welsh Books Council (Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru), which handles marketing and distribution and provides grants for authors, editors, typesetting and production. The publishing list has grown to cover colour books for children and young people, colouring and puzzle books, colour Bibles for all ages, prayer and service books, materials for children's and youth clubs, and training handbooks for Sunday school teachers. A central priority is ensuring suitable textbooks for children, young people and adults in Wales, guided by a dedicated Textbooks Panel. Beyond books, the press produces a wide selection of Christmas cards, Christian greeting cards and special pastoral cards, as well as colour leaflets and posters for churches and Sunday schools, and children's gifts such as mugs, pens, wallets and pencils. Under the chairmanship of Rheinallt Thomas, the publishing panel continues to meet regularly to discuss the annual publishing programme. The press's titles are sold through local Welsh and Christian bookshops, can be ordered online via www.gwales.com, and many are also available from general merchandise websites such as Amazon. In this way, Cyhoeddiadau'r Gair has become a key supplier of Welsh-language Christian literature and educational resources for churches, Sunday schools and families across Wales.
