The Rev. J. Elwyn Davies, 1925-2007

It is with sadness and a sense of loss that the Evangelical Movement of Wales (EMW) announces the death of the Rev. J. Elwyn Davies after a long illness. He was one of the chief founders of the Movement, leading the work as its General Secretary for over 30 years.

Following the Second World War a number of Welsh men and women – some of them the Rev. Elwyn Davies taking a leading role. All the activity testified to their evangelical faith, rooted in personal experience and a sure belief in the efficacy of Christ’s death. Unknown to Elwyn and his fellow believers, the foundations of the EMW were being formed, with evangelical Welsh Christians, old and new, coming together across traditional denominational barriers.
