Testimonials

“I’ve been away from the Lord for 34 years and came back after that horrible event on the college platform. This was one of my first events after coming back to my faith. . . . I’m between jobs and will take God’s Word with me to the next. I pray for all those who walked up to the front tonight. I cried happy tears.”

Janine, RI

“This was my very first revival and it was a spiritual experience for me. I felt something special as soon as I walked in. There was a positive energy in the air and I felt like I was a part of it. I was empowered to be more bold in my faith and I’m still feeling energized two days later. Thank you.”

Timothy, MA.

"This event was powerful! The most meaningful part of it was experiencing the faith movement in Boston. This movement needs to continue to help the country. Christ needs to be the focus of everything."

Angie, VA

"There was such a true move of God at the event. It shook me up and awakened what I had many years ago: my first love."
