Calfaria Baptist Chapel, Llanelli

Calfaria was one of the many Baptist chapels in Llanelli, Carmarthenshire, Wales.

Established in 1881, the original chapel was a modest red-brick building which cost £500 and was opened in January 1882.

[1] The first minister was James Griffiths, who moved to Calfaria, Aberdare, in 1890.

[2] Calfaria was much affected by the 1904–1905 Welsh revival, during which a large number of prayer meetings were held.

However, a prominent member was so overcome by the emotional impact of the revival that he was removed to Carmarthen Asylum.
