The Lamplighter Community Cafe in Bishopston is celebrating its 30th anniversary.The Lamplighter, a Christian café, bookshop and community space, was the brainchild of then-vicar of St Teilo’s Chris Lee and his wife Tessa and is named after a verse in St Matthew's gospel where Jesus calls us to be “a light in the world and that light should shine just like a lamp that is put on a lampstand, so that it will be seen”.Bishop John joined local clergy and volunteers past and present for a celebration today (March 4).Louise Rigdon, Lamplighter Coordinator, said: "It really was a blessed time, with stories shared, and lots of fabulous cake."We really can not thank our devoted volunteers enough for their dedication and service. Without them, and the support of our community, we couldn't keep working with and in our area."
