The Spirit fell upon us
The Evangelical Movement of Wales came into being through an exceptional manifestation of God's saving grace and his overruling providence.
The Spirit of God moved powerfully in the University College of North Wales, Bangor, between 1947 and 1949. One of the men converted was J. Elwyn Davies, a theological student and a zealous Student Christian Movement (SCM) worker. He became the leader of the converted students at Bangor. Another student, Herbert Evans, had been converted in 1941, and the basis of a lifelong friendship was formed between the two during these years in Bangor.
