Revival

This is a multimedia slideshow production I completed in October 2009 for the St. Louis Review Newspaper.  The story is an Ecumenical Revival which took place at St. Elizabeth Mother of John the Baptist Church in St. Louis, Missouri.

What makes this story unique is the inter-denominational aspect. Most revivals are just one congregation by itself. Many of community churches have revival every year but the event is seldom practiced in the Catholic Church, and quite rarely in combination with other Christian groups.

This “Building Bridges” spiritual gathering featured each pastor  preaching to the congregation one of three consecutive Revival nights while a combine Gospel Choir lead the music.  The inner city churches have realized their similar missions and goals to their struggling cultures, neighborhoods and members.  This prayerful Revival was the first step in them coming together to work for those causes.  The churches involved were St. Elizabeth, Mother of John the Baptist ChurchWashington Metropolitan AME Zion andRhema Baptist Assembly.
