There are a number of meetings and groups at Tabernacle especially for the men of the Church:

Men's Breakfast

Periodically a Men's Breakfast is organised. It's always a great time where we can invite a guest speaker in and enjoy a time of teaching and worship along side an excellent cooked breakfast. Please get in touch with Roger Grafton through the contact page or ring the church office for more information

Church Football Team

This is a chance for the Men to do what Men do best...play Football! An informal church league has been set up to enable Men from all over the area to join their church team and play against each other. For more information please visit

The Tabs Choir

A few years ago Lorna Lock gathered together a group of ladies to re-form the Tabs Ladies Choir, and recently Richard Frost took charge of running the choir. The Tabs Choir now extends an open invitation to men to join the choir and the hope is to grow into a wider ministry within Tabs and further afield. The choir meets on Wednesday evenings at 7.30pm for about an hour and half to practice and enjoy a time of fun and fellowship whilst also concentrating on the serious side of preparing pieces for services.

Since becoming Senior Pastor Roger has been keen to have the choir involved in services more often, particularly during the celebration of communion.

Whilst we have seen new members come along, sadly others have moved on so we would love new singers of all abilities to come and join us (or old members re-join us!) If you enjoy worshipping God in song then why not come along one Wednesday to see what we get up to. It may be just what you’ve been looking for!

Yearly Cardiff Men's Convention

The Cardiff Men's convention has been established and growing for just under 10 years now and many of the churches Men attend this day conference every year. It gives the chance for the Men to get together with about 2000 other Christian Men from around South Wales and enjoy fellowship, teaching and worship.

We would encourage all our Men and friends to join us this year. For more information please visit their website

Maintenance Team

Several Men from the church get together twice a week to help maintain the church building. They do everything from simple DIY, plumbing, painting and making sure they stop for their much deserved tea break!! They help the church save a lot of money each year in building repairs and are always more than happy when people can join in and give them a hand.

Being a Christian man in the modern world, with the constant sexualisation of society and modern temptations can be tough. Highly sexual images on billboards, television, DVD and, of course, the internet can be a constant challenge to men who desire holiness but are finding it difficult.

Pastor Roger recommends that you investigate suitable filter software for you computer and handheld devices and find yourself an accountability partner. Some software, such as X3Watch, is free and will monitor your internet usage and email a list of unsuitable sites you visit to your accountability partner, pastor or wife. For a small annual charge a filter will actively block you from visiting pornographic or unsuitable websites. The same company also offer an anonymous online course to help men and women break addictions to pornography. X3Watch is available at www.x3watch.com. Other companies offer similar products and programmes such as ‘Covenant Eyes’ from Promise Keepers, or ‘Safe Eyes’ can easily be found through a search engine.

If you would like to be linked up with an accountability partner or would like to discuss any problems you might be having in this area in complete confidence, please contact one of the Pastors or one of the elders.
