Carmel is one of twelve churches in Llanilar Pastorate, overseen by Reverend Nicholas Bee. It has 55 members and 10 children, most of whom are under 6 years old. A Pastorate Service is held on the first Sunday of every month. The village Literary Society meets in Carmel every other Thursday evening during the winter. We join the Church in Wales in holding a Bread and Cheese Tea every May in support of Christian Aid.
