Darlith goffa
Mae Canon Clavier yn ymuno â ni i draddodi’r cyntaf of Ddarlithoedd Coffa’r Tra Pharchg Trevor Evans ar Genhadaeth ac Efengylu.
Brodor o Ddolgellau oedd Trevor Evans. Bu'n fyfyriwr yng Ngholeg yr Atgyfodiad yn Mirfield, ac wedi hynny'n offeiriad gydol ei oes yn Esgobaeth Bangor. Yn dilyn gweinidogaethau llewyrchus yn Llanidloes yn y 1970au a Llanfairpwll yn yr 1980au, gwasanaethodd Deon Evans yng Nghadeirlan Deiniol Sant o 1998 hyd ei ymddeoliad yn 2004, a pharhaodd i addoli yn y Gadeirlan hyd ei farwolaeth yn 2020. Bu i ef a’i wraig, Chris, hefyd sefydlu perthynas arloesol gyda’r Eglwys Anglicanaidd yn Uganda, ac arwain encilion pererindota rheolaidd a chofiadwy i Ynys Enlli. Mae’n cael ei gofio fel efengylwr y cyffyrddodd ei weinidogaeth â bywydau llawer o bobl o fewn ein hesgobaeth a thu hwnt.
Anglicaniaid bwriadol, nid Anglicaniaid hap a damwain: Yr hyn y gall Anglicaniaid byd-eang ei ddysgu inni am weinidogaeth a chenhadaeth
Fel Anglicanaidd yng Nghymru, tueddwn i edrych dros y ffin i Loegr am adnewyddiad mewn cenhadaeth ac efengylu. Ond mae gennym ni, o fewn y teulu Anglicanaidd rhyngwladol, ffynhonnau dyfnach i dynnu ysbrydoliaeth ohonynt, a chyd-destunau mwy ffrwythlon o bosibl i ddysgu ganddynt. Daw Canon Clavier â heriau cenhadol a mewnwelediadau efengylaidd o feysydd annisgwyl.
Bydd y ddarlith yn dechrau am 6.30pm, ac fe’i cyflwynir gan Archddiacon Meirionnydd, yr Hybarch Andrew Carroll Jones. Cynhelir derbyniad gwin o 6pm, ac eto ar ôl y ddarlith. Cenir Gosber ar Gân yn y Gadeirlan am 5.30pm, ac mae croeso i bawb ymuno â'n haddoliad.
Traddodir y ddarlith yn Saesneg.

Memorial lecture
Canon Clavier joins us to deliver the inaugural Very Revd Trevor Evans Memorial Lecture in Mission & Evangelism.
Trevor Evans was a native of Dolgellau, a student of the College of the Resurrection in Mirfield, and a life-long priest of the Diocese of Bangor. Following flourishing ministries in Llanidloes in the 1970s and Llanfairpwll in the 1980s, Dean Evans served at Saint Deiniol’s Cathedral from 1998 until his retirement in 2004, and continued to worship at the Cathedral until his death in 2020. He and his wife, Chris, also established a pioneering relationship with the Anglican Church in Uganda, and led regular and memorable pilgrimage retreats to Bardsey Island. He is remembered as a evangelist whose ministry touched the lives of many people within our diocese and beyond.
Anglicans by intention rather than by accident: What global Anglicans can teach us about ministry and mission
As Anglican in Wales, we tend to look over the border of England for examples of renewing mission and evangelism. But we have, within the international Anglican family, deeper wells from which to draw inspiration, and potentially more fruitful contexts from which to learn. Canon Clavier will bring us missional challenge and evanagelistic insight from unexpected quarters.
The lecture will begin at 6.30pm, introduced by the Archdeacon of Meirionnydd, the Venerable Andrew Carroll Jones. A drinks reception is held from 6pm, and again after the lecture. Choral Evensong is sung at the Cathedral at 5.30pm, and all are welcome to join our worship.
The lecture is delivered in English.
