Archaeology and History Society meeting
10:25am Friday 13th July 2012 in Ammanford
The next Archaeology and History Society Meeting will be at 7pm, Monday July 16, at the Ammanford Evangelical Church, Wind Street (former English Wesleyan Church), opposite the Welsh Hospitals and Salvation Army charity shops.
The speaker will be Dr Lyn Davies who will give a talk on the 1904/05 religious revival in Wales entitled: “Aspects of the 1904/05 Revival with emphasis on the Amman Valley and Penygroes”.
His talk will consist of an overview of the main aspects of Revivalism, the gradual setting up of the Apostolic Church, the ‘split’ chapel in Penygroes, music, ie hymn singing, as part of the Revival (a very important part!), comparisons with the deep South in the USA, the role played in the locality by Pastor Dan (D.P. Williams) and the influence of the Revival on future generations.
Admission free. All welcome; bring a friend.
