The Boston Awakening: Feb. 22 - Mar. 18

Boston is the site of much secular and spiritual history. A strategic city that sits on the northeastern Atlantic coast, it was once a spiritual beachhead during The Great Awakening of the 1700's and the revivals of the 1800's, but now is considered one of the least reached cities in the United States. An intellectual fortress and hotbed of liberalism, Boston hosts 45 college campuses and 300,000 college students. We believe it is God's will to bring another Great Awakening to Boston, starting with the multitudes of unreached college students who remind us that "the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few" (Luke 10:2).


Bob Weiner shared his vision with Derek Levendusky of Isaiah 6 Ministries, Justin Kendrick of Holyfire Ministries, and Kent Murawski of BASIC College Ministries, and found that the Holy Spirit had also been speaking to their hearts about the New England area. These will team together to trust the Lord for The Boston Awakening. Intercessors Jerry and Judy Ball will lead the Pray For Boston week that kick off the campaign.
