  • Historian and fan of all things Welsh, Ray Hughes, comes all the way from the USA to take us on a journey to one of the oldest Churches in Wales. St Illtyds in Llantwit Major is the cradle of Celtic Christianity and renown for reforming religion throughout the British isles.
    In this programme Ray brings his insight, knowledge and passion for Wales' deep heritage and history to life. The past is past, but how also to learn from it and bring lessons into the now.

    The British isles are a very strategic place for the gospel, the knowledge of the saints is now essential all over the earth through the sanctification of the isles

    Very interesting, thank you for sharing 🤍 There are many churches and holy wells in the west country of England, with legends attatched, of Joseph of Arimethea and the boy Jesus visiting these British Isles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🤍

    Brilliant more of this as well please. Ray Hughes you're as interesting and enjoyable to listen to as always. If you are ever thinking of doing a whole series with Ray I think you should put out a fund raiser request. I WOULD CERTAINLY DONATE. If you need contacts in Northern Ireland or Ireland in general just send me a message though a lot of them I know Ray already knows. I pray the will of God through his mercy will direct where ever it should go.

    Onto cool mediaeval masonry,
    To paint living colours onto ancient structure,
    So Spirit and Truth unite,
    To quicken the worshipping heart…”

    "Every little stream is born secretly believing that its a river until it becomes one" "May the goodness of the lord be as the waters covers the sea, may His glory be revealed as the waters that covers the sea. May the kindness of The Lord as the waters covers the sea begin to sweep the nations again and go like little streams that secretly believe that they can become a river and than they do"

    Joining in the breaking of the bread and taking of the wine is the central Sacrament that holds us together over the centuries. Apostolic succession, too. This seems to me like an American (emotional/sentimental) indy megachurch interpretation of the ancient Church.

    If we read Saint Nennius you will see a totally different history that we have now, so where did the modern Celtic history come from , it came from Edward Llwyd, a modern invention, so we all have been drawn into a fake history , also Saint Guldas said that The holy family came to Glamorgan in 37 ad ,
