Shebbear Methodist Chapel




December 25th, 1816 - we met at Lake at four in the morning, to praise the Lord for the revival of his work, which left no place "unwatered still and dry". One received the evidence that the blood of Christ cleanses thee from all sin; six found peace with God, and more were crying for it... At 2 pm the people gathered in the church. I spoke on the words "thou shalt call His name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins". Three fell when I was speaking; we prayed, and soon more fell; I think six found peace.
