Smith Wigglesworth was a motivated young child who did what he could to help his family on a daily basis. He was born on June 8, 1859 in Menston, Yorkshire, England. His father did manual labor for low pay. So at age six he started pulling turnips and at age seven he started working in a woolen mill for 12 hours a day. Additionally, as a young boy, he was truly interested in God and being a follower of Christ. I just wanted to learn and pray to strengthen his relationship which he was very passionate about. Because his parents didn't really want to go to church and pray daily. It was his grandmother who exposed him to Christianity and he was very grateful. He attended a meeting with his grandmother when he was a child and heard a song sung about "Jesus and the Lamb." His decision to believe in Christ for his salvation was decided that day. He was immediately filled with the desire to evangelize and led his own mother to Christ. Smith attended many different churches during his childhood. He started in an Episcopal church and then, at the age of thirteen, attended the Wesleyan Methodist church. At the age of sixteen he began working in the Salvation Army and was very successful. At that time he felt a strong desire to fast and pray for lost souls. There were some meetings where he explains that people prayed, fasted and worshiped God for twenty-four hours. This is how powerful God was at work in this place and blessing those who were present and faithful to what they all were doing. It was at the age of 18 that he left the factory and started working as a plumber. He then moved to Liverpool at the age of twenty and continued to work during the day and minister in his spare time. For some......in the middle of a sheet......by passing on the word of God and helping to save lives. Many things would not have been done without Smith regarding the things that happened around him and his impact on the lives of everyone he came in contact with until his passing.
