Quakers have no priests or those put in authority over us, but share the work needed to maintain our society.
All roles in South Wales Area Meeting (SWAM) are held by Friends (Quakers) who have been usually been suggested by our Nominations Committee and who are customarily appointed for three years at a time. Every role holder is an unpaid volunteer.
Sometimes Friends are asked to serve on a Task and Finish group, or are appointed to attend and report back on an event or course, such as Britain Yearly Meeting or courses at Woodbrooke.
Nid oes gan y Crynwyr unrhyw offeiriaid na rhai sy’n cael eu rhoi mewn awdurdod drosom. Yn hytrach, mae’r gwaith sydd ei angen i gynnal ein cymdeithas yn cael ei rannu rhyngom.
Mae'r holl rolau yng Nghyfarfod Rhanbarth De Cymru yn cael eu cyflawni gan Gyfeillion (Crynwyr) sydd fel arfer wedi eu hawgrymu gan ein Pwyllgor Enwebiadau ac sydd fel arfer yn cael eu penodi am dair blynedd ar y tro. Mae pob deiliad swydd yn wirfoddolwr di-dâl.
Weithiau gofynnir i Gyfeillion wasanaethu ar grŵp Gorchwyl a Gorffen, neu fe'u penodir i fynd i ddigwyddiad neu gwrs, fel Cyfarfod Blynyddol Prydain neu gyrsiau yn Woodbrooke, ac adrodd yn ôl.

The Symud Ymlaen (Moving Forwards) process is designed to reduce the administrative burden on the four Area Meetings in Wales and the Southern Marches, and on Crynwyr Cymru – Quakers in Wales (CCQW), by having just one charity. Because of its size the single charity may be able to afford some paid administrative support. This should mean that some of the more arduous and time demanding tasks can be given to professional help.
It is hoped that this will free up our Area Meeting to focus on being more vibrant and nurturing
Mae proses Symud Ymlaen wedi'i chynllunio i leihau'r baich gweinyddol ar y pedwar Cyfarfod Rhanbarth yng Nghymru a De’r Gororau, ac ar Grynwyr Cymru – Quakers in Wales (CCQW), drwy fod ag un elusen yn unig. Oherwydd ei maint, efallai y gall yr elusen unigol fforddio rhywfaint o gymorth gweinyddol â thâl. Dylai hyn olygu y gall rhai o'r tasgau mwy llafurus a heriol o ran amser gael eu gwneud â chymorth proffesiynol.
Y gobaith yw y bydd hyn yn rhyddhau ein Cyfarfod Rhanbarth i ganolbwyntio ar fod yn fwy bywiog a meithringar.
