THE CENTENARY OF THE WELSH REVIVAL

This month thousands in Wales are remembering with thankfulness to God, the wonderful benefits of the Revival of 1904 when suddenly in both North and South Wales in the second week of November, God’s presence was felt in such an extraordinary way that crime virtually disappeared.

Coal mines rang with the sound of praise instead of blasphemous oaths. Bookshops ran out of Bibles. Chapels were full of happy people. Family squabbles were settled and anti-social behaviour vanished.

This visitation by God to Wales spread throughout the world. Recently some visitors to Britain from the strong Christian church in South Korea said that it was established by missionaries from the Welsh Revival.
