The Anglican Church in Wales had had a significant role in
invoking support for the Royalist cause in the two recent civil
wars between Parliament and King Charles I. Parliament now
appointed a Commission for the Propagation of the Gospel in Wales,
which had two main aims. One was to find those clergy hostile to
the new regime, who still might stir up animosity, and deprive them
of their livings. The only was to support the existing Puritan
ministers, and reinforce their work with additional Puritan
missionaries.
