As we rapidly approach the end of 2024, many people are looking for ways to help ministries and non-profits end the year strong. Revival Now International would love to participate in your end-of-year giving. We need your help to achieve our goals of excellence in teaching and training leaders across Africa, training leaders here in the United States, and bringing revival and renewal to our homeland.
A special thank you to every church, pastor, and individual who supported our December training classes in Kenya. As of this writing, we are on the way to Kenya, where we will participate in the 3rd Annual Revival Now Church Conference, two Shepherd’s Hope Training Centre classes, and graduations; we will preach at another conference in Kilgoris and visit Hope Centre Children’s Home for our annual dinner together. Your giving to Revival Now not only helps us continue these ministries but also helps us continue to expand the Revival Now School of Ministry here in the United States as well.
Here is a listing of some of the activities you help us sponsor as a partner of Revival Now:
1.Revival Campaigns & Sunday Services in the United States. This continues to be the major focus of our outreach: believing and working with local churches around our country in bringing people to Christ, to a fresh encounter with Jesus, and preparing churches for a Great Awakening in their area.
2.Shepherd’s Hope Training Centre, Kenya. This has been a tremendous source of joy for me. We so enjoy seeing pastors & leaders gather from across East Africa to sit for hours at a time for an entire week to receive and learn from our teaching team that travels with us three times per year to Kenya for our training center classes. In December, we will graduate over one hundred more pastors and leaders who are completing our training courses this year and joining with the other 1450 leaders who have completed our training since 2010; these leaders impact over 75,000 people each and every Sunday. You have helped make this happen. To God Be ALL The Glory!!!
3.Hope Centre Children’s Home. What a joy these children have been to Revival Now. I can tell you, Pam really does turn into a Mama Bear over the Children of Hope Centre! The opportunity God gave us to be a small part of these children’s lives has brought great joy to our entire family. We are very excited that Megan Hayslip, our oldest daughter, has taken over the day-to-day oversight of Hope Centre as the US Director. We are also happy to announce that beginning January 1, 2025, Madison Hayslip will become the new Executive Director of Hope Centre, here in the United States. Exciting things are happening!
4.Revival Now School of Ministry USA. In September, after two years of planning and praying, we began our first Revival Now School of Ministry USA class. Currently, twenty students attend in-person courses, and four students study online one weekend per month. When completed, students can receive a degree in Biblical Studies from Omega Bible Institute and Seminary, headquartered in Monroe, Louisiana.
5.International Travel. In early 2022, we were asked to accept the appointment as the Director of Foreign Affairs with AEGA Ministries International (the fellowship I’m ordained with). In October of this year, we traveled to Ghana, West Africa, to participate in the AEGA Ghana National Conference. This was our first “official” conference with AEGA, and we were honored to be the keynote speaker in Ghana. We believe more doors are opening in other nations to expand the reach of AEGA and Revival Now in the coming months. This is not a “paid” position, but we were happy to accept this position as another way of bringing expansion to God’s Kingdom.
6.Revivalnow.org. Our online presence continues to grow and begins with our website. RevivalNow.org features our monthly newsletters, a large assortment of audio & video teachings to bless people with, our blog, and a complete schedule of where Pam & I will be in the upcoming days. Revivalnow.org also hosts our online giving platform where you can give securely your love gift each month. Please stop by and visit us at http://revivalnow.org.
7.Social Media. Our online presence continues with our personal and ministry Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook Live, and our Podcast, “Revival Now with David Copeland,” which is hosted on every major podcast hosting site. Our YouTube Channel hosts our Revival Now TV online stream, which also continues to reach people all around the world.
8.Revival Now Ministry Network/AEGA Ministries. We are honored to be able to provide oversight, encouragement, and cover to churches and ministries across the United States through our affiliation with AEGA Ministries and the Revival Now Ministry Network. We continue to help ministers receive credentials through AEGA Ministries or their local churches. If there has ever been an hour to help encourage leaders, it’s today!
We are not bragging about what we are doing here; we are only sharing what we do around the world to help you see the seed you are sowing into Revival Now. Revival Now is accomplishing many things that I pray will bring great blessings to people now and great rewards to our partners on the Day of Judgment. It has been said that what you make happen for others, God will make happen for you!
Thank you again for helping us fulfill our part of the Great Commission!
