Half
a dozen young people cannot meet accidentally in the street without
joining in praise. Recently a group of children met on the Cross and
began to sing and pray. Ultimately they were joined by young men and
women. The result was a grand open-air prayer meeting. The most
noteworthy characteristic about the gatherings is their spontaneity.
Ammanford is a new town. Young people full of religious enthusiasm
frequently walk three or four miles over the mountains to hold meetings
at farms and hamlets.
Garndiffaith - A Versatile Traveler
Revival Flashbacks
A
traveler at Garn said, "Today revival comes before business," At one
place where he called to do business the people found that he could
play the organ, and before any business could be done a regular Revival
service took place, the traveler acted as organist. "Throw out the
lifeline" was sung by those present. The service then closed, and good
business was subsequently transacted.
Bristol - A Fight Stopped
Revival Flashbacks
At an open-air assembly, held at 10:30
near the Portcullis Inn, Mr. Taylor, of Downend, and Mr. Brain, of
Staple Hill, led the meeting, and singing was accompanied by Salvation
Army concertina players. The crowd increased and some little difficulty
was threatened owing to two men who had come from a public house
desiring to settle a difference by fighting the matter out. Mr. Giles
opportunely gave to all present an invitation to a midnight service in
a neighborhood chapel, and a movement in that direction being made, so
many followed that the place of worship was nearly filled. Six signed
the total abstinence pledge, one of the two disputants before referred
to being in the number. Several of those who had obviously been given
way to drink were so influenced that they decided for Christ and bore
testimony.

The revival shows no sign of abating - in fact, it is increasing in fervor. The Trinity Church
members continue to hold open-air meetings, and are doing much good.
The Baptists and Primitive Methodists are also working hard.
