To the editor:
This Friday and Saturday, Aug 22 & 23, we are stepping into a doorway that we believe will mark the future of our state and region. Bishop Lance Johnson will be with us to help ignite the fire of revival in Vermont. Friday night will be a time of worship and impartation, and on Saturday, we will set aside the day for teaching and preparation, laying the groundwork for the summer of 2026, when we believe revival will sweep across this region.
The Vermont-New Hampshire Revival Network Annual Conference 2025 will meet at 6 PM August 22 and 5 PM August 23 at the Hunger Mountain Christian Assembly, 4940 Waterbury-Stowe Rd, Waterbury Center.
The Lord has been faithful to remind us that true revival is not built on personalities or programs, but on altars that burn with His fire. Jesus said, “I am come to send fire on the earth” (Luke 12:49). That fire exposes what is dead, but it also kindles what is alive. We have been praying and our hearts are stirred, not for a temporary spark, but for a sustained flame that will change families, churches, and entire communities.
This weekend is just one of many touch points the Lord is providing as He prepares us for what is ahead. Each encounter, each gathering, is part of a larger story He is writing for Vermont and beyond. These are stepping stones leading us toward the fullness of what He has promised.
We want to invite you to join us, whether in person or in prayer. Stand with us as we seek the Lord together. Revival is not a distant dream; it is a fire already kindled, waiting to break out in full.
Our prayer is that each of you will catch the flame with us, and carry it into your homes, your churches, towns and cities.
