Spring Revival

Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? Psalm 85:6

This past weekend was just…great! Our church had its spring revival with Pastor Rick Sowell, of Hope Baptist Church, Toledo, Ohio. The preaching was solid, the music was great, and the fellowship was even greater.

These events make for wonderful opportunities to invite unsaved loved ones, which we did. Many visitors came over the Friday through Sunday services and heard the blessed gospel of our Lord. We know of one teenage girl who got saved. Tears ran down her face as she accepted Christ as her Saviour, especially when told that her friend had been praying for her salvation.

This revival was also good for us as Christians and for the Church. I know we all benefited tremendously from the preaching of God’s word.

I was saddened when the revival came to its end on Sunday evening. Even now, I kinda wish I could go back in time. But we can only look forward, which is a good thing, since this coming June our church is “evacuating” Montreal as it will be our turn to attend Hope Baptist Church’s revival (Heartland Bible Conference – June 17-22).

Our church services for the revival were Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday morning and evening. Pastor Sowell’s revival, however, is an entire week long! Each day of the week, there’s a service in the morning with THREE preachers, and TWO preachers in the evening, and a whole lot of Christian fellowship in between.

I CAN HARDLY WAIT!!!! (only 7 weeks to kill….)
