Ieuan Phillips was the older brother of Bethan Lloyd-Jones and a close friend of her husband Martyn.
They both began in the ministry in 1927 in pastorates in South Wales, Ieuan in the London Road Presbyterian Church, Neath, and Martyn in Sandfields, Aberavon. The hand of God was upon them both and the following is an account of what happened at Christmas 1930, written later by Ieuan himself.
After they had arrived in Neath, Ieuan and his wife Lynn had become friendly with a local doctor and his wife, Kit. The story continues in Ieuan's own words.
