More news for you to read about events, projects and activities in the Federation. CORONATION DAY RALLY WATCH OUT FOR An exciting new publication due for release in the summer entitled Maelgwn of Llandaff and Joseph of Arimathea. As the back cover says: “It will come as a considerable surprise to many to consider the evidence that the grave of Joseph of Arimathea – who arrived in South Wales in AD 35-37 – still exists in Cardiff. The evidence of the grave being on an island surrounded by water on all sides as described by the Prince Maelgwn of Llandaff is very solid indeed. When the knowledge of the immense Christian heritage of South Wales is fully appreciated it will stir a very powerful interest in the heritage of the early British Church of South Wales and in the kings who ruled Britain in defiance of the Roman occupation.” NEWS FROM HEADQUARTERS
VISIT TO BIWF-USA David Aimer combined a short holiday trip to New York with a visit to Jim McElroy in Heber Springs, Arkansas.
