'Teulu Trefeca' (meaning 'Trefeca Family') was
the name given by Howell Harris to the
remarkable Christian Community he founded here
in 1752. Inspired by the Moravians, the Teulu
shared a daily pattern of work, meals and
worship.
At its height more than 120 men , women and
children lived at Trefeca. They were virtually
self sufficient, practising over 70 different
trades and crafts.
The furniture, and clocks in the
museum were made by members of the
Teulu The Grade 2* Listed building is itself a
testimony to their craftsmanship.
Today, Teulu Trefeca is a network of individuals
who want to share in the work of Coleg Trefeca
in mission and renewal and who commit themselves
to support the College and one another through
prayer.
Members use the Teulu Trefeca Daily Devotions in
their private prayers. They receive a newsletter
twice a year and gather at Trefeca for an annual
conference, a social day in August and at other
times as they are able.
