Our Corporate Journey to Revival: Preparing for Operation: Revive & Restore
“After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.” — Hosea 6:2
A Journey We Take Together
Revival doesn’t happen overnight. It is born in the fertile soil of expectant hearts, watered by persistent prayer, and cultivated through intentional preparation. As the African Christian Fellowship (ACF) East Region, we are embarking on a sacred journey—a corporate pilgrimage of spiritual awakening that will culminate in our July 2026 conference, “Operation: Revive & Restore,” in Marlborough, Massachusetts.
This is not merely an event we are planning; it is a divine encounter we are preparing our hearts to receive. And we invite you, our beloved guests and friends, to walk this transformative path with us.
The Call to Revival
There comes a moment in the life of every believer, every fellowship, every generation, when the Spirit of God issues a clarion call: “Return to Me, and I will return to you.” We believe we are standing in such a moment. The prophet Hosea’s ancient words pulse with fresh urgency for our time: God promises to revive us, to restore us, to bring us into the fullness of His presence.
But revival requires something of us. It demands that we position ourselves in the posture of readiness, that we prepare the ground of our hearts, that we align our corporate life with Heaven’s rhythm. Over the coming months, ACF East Region will be engaging in intentional activities designed to keep the flame of expectation burning brightly in every heart.
Our Threefold Preparation
Revival Saturdays & Sundays (Monthly)
Beginning this month, all ACF East chapters will consecrate their first Saturday and Sunday gatherings to the theme of revival. These won’t be ordinary services—they will be sacred appointments where we corporately seek God’s face, crying out for His reviving touch upon our lives, our families, our communities, and our generation.
Imagine the collective power of every ACF East chapter, across multiple states, lifting unified prayers for revival on the same weekend each month. This is the beauty of corporate spiritual discipline—when many hearts beat as one before the throne of grace.
The Revival Epistles (Bi-weekly)
In the tradition of the apostolic letters that strengthened the early church, our chapter presidents will pen “Revival Epistles”—pastoral letters that will encourage, challenge, and inspire us on this journey. These bi-weekly messages will arrive in your inbox like spiritual vitamins, nourishing your soul and keeping the vision of revival alive in your daily walk.
Each epistle will be a love letter from shepherd to flock, reminding us of who we are, whose we are, and where we’re headed. They will be published on our conference website, creating a growing treasury of wisdom and encouragement that will serve as spiritual waymarkers on our journey.
Words of Revival (Weekly)
Our youth and young adults will lead the charge in “Words of Revival,” a weekly short-form video series that captures the fresh, authentic voices of the next generation. In these videos, young believers will share their personal definitions of revival and inspire viewers to join us at the conference.
There is something profoundly powerful about hearing revival articulated through younger voices—it reminds us that God is raising up a generation hungry for His presence, unwilling to settle for religion without relationship, ceremony without encounter.
An Invitation to the Journey
Whether you are a longstanding ACF member or a guest joining us for the first time, you are invited into this sacred preparation. Revival is never meant to be experienced in isolation; it is a corporate awakening that transforms communities and impacts nations.
As we journey together toward July 2026, we encourage you to:
- Participate fully in the monthly Revival Saturdays and Sundays at your local chapter
- Engage deeply with the bi-weekly Revival Epistles, allowing them to shape your prayers and expectations
- Share widely the weekly Words of Revival videos, spreading the hunger for God’s presence
- Pray fervently for a genuine move of God across the East Region and beyond
Living in His Presence
The promise of Hosea 6:2 culminates in a breathtaking purpose: “that we may live in his presence.” This is the ultimate goal of all revival—not merely spiritual highs or emotional experiences, but a sustained, transformative life lived in the conscious presence of Almighty God.
As we prepare our hearts over these coming months, we are not simply counting down to a conference. We are positioning ourselves for an encounter that will mark us, change us, and launch us into a new dimension of Kingdom living.
The journey to revival begins now. The preparation starts today. The invitation is extended to all.
