We raised £955! Particular credit goes to Peter Gardner, who once again nurtured choice sweet-pea seedlings of named varieties and sold them, individually potted, at a table in the middle of the hall. I only secured one, a dark blue, but it’s now six feet tall and flowering profusely in a pot by my front door. We catch the scent as we go in and out. Joy Neal provided some extremely choice houseplants, most of which were snapped up in minutes. Divided chunks of good garden perennials and new seedling veg and flowers also sold very well. Jan Eldridge provided us with a really professional banner: attached to the railings at the Penparcau roundabout for two weeks prior to the sale, this increased our visibility to the public, who queued eagerly till the doors opened. Before the doors opened The summer excursions run by John and Sue Wildig have also been well subscribed and offered a varied and fascinating range of experiences.

Llangeitho & Welsh Revivals
Llangeitho and Welsh Revivals D. Geraint Jones Wales, like America, has been called the land of revivals, and throughout its history has known many periods of blessing. The period between 1735 and 1905 was a time of almost continual blessing, with very few years passing without there being a revival somewhere in Wales, either on the local, regional or national level. There were few places that were so signally blessed during a large part of this period than Llangeitho in Cardiganshire. Revivals Under Daniel Rowland During the ministry of Daniel Rowland, from his conversion in 1735 until his death in 1790, there are said to have been about seven periods of powerful revival. Some of these are have been recorded, and we know when they occurred, but concerning others we have no accounts, or do not know for sure when they happened. The first, early in his ministry, is said to have begun while he was reading, or rather praying, the words of the Anglican Prayer Book Litany, 'By thine agony [in Welsh 'extreme agony'] and bloody sweat'. John Owen, one of Rowland's early biographers, says: 'The touching and melting manner in which Rowlands repeated these words, affected the whole assembly so much, that they almost all wept, and wept loudly... Many in the congregation were really convinced and converted, as their subsequent conduct proved.' In 1762 a very powerful revival broke out at Llangeitho as a result of the introduction of a new hymn-book by William Williams, Pantycelyn. It spread throughout Cardiganshire, and several other counties, even reaching North Wales.
