Prayer

Carmarthen sits just west of Swansea and is the main town in Carmarthenshire. With a population of around 15,000, it can lay claim to being the oldest town in Wales dating back to Roman times, roughly AD 75. In the ancient tale of King Arthur, Merlin the wizard was said to have been born just outside of Carmarthen which can be translated as "Merlin's Fort". 

In 1891, a Pentecostal League of Prayer was established in the town which made Carmarthen ripe for the revival which would come a few years later just 25 miles away. There are several accounts of different ministers in Carmarthen receiving a "baptism" of power in the years leading up to the great 1904 Revival. It did not take long for the revival to hit Carmarthen in 1904. On Christmas Day of that year, many people gathered for most of the day in the churches as they worshipped and prayed together. There were periods of weeks when there were no drunk and disorderly charges brought against anyone as hundreds of people converted and left behind their old lives. 

We are believing for God to do a work in this city again. Please pray God would put us in contact with people there; people who are hungry and thirsty for righteousness. We believe a great revival can be ignited once again in this region.
