The church in Gloucestershire that I pastored was started by a crusade with Edward Jeffreys in the Subscription rooms in the late 1920's. It was quite a revival in a small community and the church there was established and going on today.

As a boy Edward observed his father,Stephen,when he was pastoring Llanelly and he travelled with him on many of his missions and often led the singing and saw wonderful things,as people were saved,healed and blessed!

Many of the churches Edward planted are still a living witness to the power of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ!
