 Wales on the Web John Wesley In Wales — A Movie of The Man   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
Wales on the Web John Wesley was born 1703 and died 1791 — fifty years of his life were spent delivering an average of 15 sermons every week travelling some 250,000 miles on horse back, many of them during his forty- six visits to Wales.
Son of a non- conformist minister, he was brought up in Epworth, Lincolnshire, going on to Oxford University, where Charles and John Wesley’s “Holy Club” would fundamentally alter British religion, their desire to establish methods of study and practice within the church bringing not only mockery but the nickname “Methodists”.
His biggest problem was with the Welsh language: At Llantrissant he recorded: “Few could understand me so Henry Lloyd repeated my sermon in Welsh” and while staying overnight in North Wales was agreeably surprised to discover “several of the family understood English, an uncommon thing in these parts”.
