Jonathan and Dan spend the day in Bala, filming about Thomas Charles (1755-1814). Bala is arguably one of the most significant towns in Wales for Evangelical Christians.
Thomas Charles ministered in Bala, where he established the British and Foreign Bible Society, and saw revival break out in 1791. He also followed in Griffith Jones' footsteps, establishing circulating schools in North Wales. And linked to the founding of the Bible Society is the famous story of Mary Jones (1784-1864).
Bala is also the home of Bryn y Groes Christian Conference Centre, purchased by the Evangelical Movement of Wales 60 years ago. It has been an oasis for Christians in Wales for all that time, and a site of powerful movements of God in living memory - both at ministers' conferences, held annually since the days of Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981), and also thousands of youngsters have attended summer camps, many of whom testify to having come to know Christ at those week-long retreats.
