1 Comment RA Torrey and Alfred Deakin linked to 1902 Melb Spiritual Revival
In April 1902 Reuben Archer Torrey an American evangelist came to Melbourne in response to thousands of petitions sent to DL Moody to preach in Australia.
This is an exclusive discovery by www.alfreddeakin.com that Alfred Deakin did make contact with RA Torrey at an event held in June 1902 Melbourne Town Hall.

In August 1904 Torrey held a service in the city of Cardiff Wales that resulted in many salvations. Only two month later Evan Roberts held his famous prayer meeting in Moriah Calvinistic Methodist Chapel
66-68 Glebe Road Loughor Wales only a few miles from Cardiff. The Welsh revival began sweeping 100,000 people into the Kingdom and the society was dramatically changed. See http://www.moriahchapel.org.uk/index.php?page=1904-revival
