Abstract

The story of Memel Baptist church (now Klaipeda) in Prussian Lithuania is not only a story of a local revival amongst predominantly German-speaking believers but also is instrumental to the beginnings of the Baptist movement in Latvia and through one particular person, Martin Kallweit, the Baptist beginnings in Russian Transcaucasia. At the same time there have been no revival-like phenomena amongst ethnic Lithuanians in the Roman Catholic context of Lithuania Proper. Cultural, social and political conditions in which other revivals have taken place as well as our interpretation of what we call a revival is discussed.
