Revive Summit scheduled Sept. 9-10

August 23, 2024

By Baptist Message staff

LAFAYETTE, La. (LBM) – A weekend aimed at helping Louisiana Baptist churches experience renewal will take place Sept. 9-10 at Open Door Community Church, Lafayette.

Revive Summit will feature in-depth Bible study, practical instructions for improvement of biblical preaching and proven steps to renewal.

Speakers planned for the event include Mark Clifton, director, North American Mission Board replant team; Jimbo Stewart, associate director, NAMB replant team; Frank Lewis, former pastor, First Baptist Church, Nashville, Tenn.; Joe Crider, worship pastor, First Baptist Church, Benbrook, Texas; Richard Blackaby, president, Blackaby Ministries International; and Rick Fisher, vice president, Blackaby Ministries International.

“On average, 25 churches per year close their doors in Louisiana,” Send Network Louisiana Director Lane Corley told the Baptist Message. “The replant rate is about seven per year. The Revive Summit will be a great conference to encourage and equip those serving in a culture where church decline is the norm.”

Cost is $15. For more information: https://louisianabaptists.org/event/revive-summit-lafayette/
