AMERICA RESET 2026

I am delighted to invite you to Revive New England 2026, taking place from Sunday evening, June 28, through Saturday, July 4.

Last year’s gathering deeply impacted many who attended. In my experience, among the many conferences and revival meetings held throughout the year, Revive New England stood out as a gathering marked by a genuine anointing in worship and powerful, Christ-centered preaching. Lives were renewed, hearts were stirred, and many left with fresh faith and hope.

This year’s conference has been made possible through the faithful leadership and sacrificial dedication of Pastor Frank Mwebesa, Senior Pastor of His Voice Church, along with many pastors, leaders, and volunteers who have labored in prayer and preparation for this special week.

From Sunday evening through Friday, we will gather each evening from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM at Congregation Lion of Judah in Boston.

One of the unique features of this year’s conference is the coming together of both seasoned spiritual fathers and emerging younger leaders to minister God’s Word to this generation. We look forward to hearing from speakers including Dr. Chuck Pierce, Dr. Negiel Bigpond, Pastor Grace Lubega, and many other anointed servants of God as they share messages of revival, reconciliation, and the advancing Kingdom of God.

The conference will conclude on Saturday, July 4, from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM with a special outdoor celebration at City Hall Plaza, where respected speakers from across the United States and around the world will gather for what promises to be a joyful spiritual celebration.

Whether you have been praying for revival, seeking fresh direction from the Lord, or longing to worship together with believers from many churches and nations, I warmly encourage you to join us. Come expecting God to move. Come with an open heart. Come believing that He is still reviving His Church and awakening New England.
