He became one of Wales's greatest Methodist leaders and educationalists, taking a primary role in establishing Cymdeithas y Beiblau (The Bible Society) in order to disseminate inexpensive Bibles in the Welsh language, and also in establishing sunday schools - an aspect of religious life which became prevalent amongst the Methodists. David Charles (1812-1878), Calvinistic Methodist minister and grandson of Thomas Charles, was born in Bala. In 1837 he established a school which later became Coleg y Bala (Bala Congregational College). In 1842 he was appointed principal of Trefeca College, a position he held for twenty years.

  • Bala and the Bible: Thomas Charles, Ann Griffiths and Mary Jones
    Bala and the Bible: Thomas Charles, Ann Griffiths and Mary Jones1 E. Wyn James Who is the most famous Welshwoman in the world? If you were to ask that queson of passers‐by shopping in Cardiff, the Welsh capi‐ tal, the answer would most likely be Shirley Bassey, or Catherine Zeta Jones perhaps. That reply would be as good an indicator as any of the seismic changes which have occurred in Welsh culture over the past hundred years or so, because at the end of the Victo‐ rian Era “the most famous Welshwoman in the world” was one of the names given to the late eighteenth‐century hymn‐writer, Ann Griffiths. One might well agree that Ann was indeed the undisput‐ ed holder of that tle in late Victorian mes were it not for one other candidate, a woman oen referred to by the Victorians and Edwardians as “the lile Welsh girl without a Bible.” That girl was Mary Jones, whose walk to Bala in 1800 to buy a Bible has by today been retold in about forty languages, and who can perhaps sll be jusfiably regarded as the most famous Welshwoman in the world, as least in the realms of internaonal popular Chrisan culture. Both women were relavely unknown unl the 1860s, in the case of Ann Griffiths, and the 1880s, in the case of Mary Jones.2 However, by the end of the nineteenth century both had become naonal icons, taking their place beside two other Welsh “women” who came into prominence during that same period, namely “the Virtuous Maid” and the “Angel on the Hearth.”3 Indeed, it would not be far amiss to call Ann Griffiths and Mary Jones the two most prominent female “saints” of the Liberal, Nonconformist Wales 69 Eusebeia which came into being in the second half of the nineteenth centu‐ ry.

Cover design by JANET PRICE Published by the Evangelical Library of Wales, Bryntirion, Bridgend. Mid Glamorgan, CF31 4DX Printed by Talbot Printing Co. Ltd., Port Talbot, West Glamorgan. [page 3] Revival Emyr Roberts REVIVAL is probably more remote from the thinking of the churches today than it has been since the beginning of Nonconformity in our land, and certainly since the Methodist Revival of over two centuries ago.∗ When at the end of October 1904, with the fire of revival in his heart, Evan Roberts felt compelled to leave the preparatory school in Castellnewydd Emlyn, Carmarthenshire, to hold revival meetings in his home town of Casllwchwr in Glamorgan, Evan Phillips the minister, who had celebrated his seventy- fifth birthday the previous week and well remembered the 1859 Revival, recognized the Spirit in the young student and advised him to go. One wonders what advice he would be given today, were he a student under the same spiritual compulsion. Some of the leaders of the 1904 Revival, such as Joseph Jenkins and W. W. Lewis, had been under the tuition of men like Thomas Charles Edwards in Aberystwyth and John Harris Jones in Trefeca, of whom the former had been profoundly affected by the '59 Revival, and the latter a leader in that same Revival.
