The theme will be “Crazy Love”
Director of Campus Ministries Lester Rector said, “The scripture tells us in John 3:16, that God’s love for us was so radical, that he was willing to give up the one thing that was most precious to him, the one sacrifice that would never be flawed by men. His Son Jesus! The “Crazy Love” Revival at UMO Will be a time in which we are established and renewed in that love.”
Elevation Worship’s husband and wife duo Jonsal and Jenna and Elevation’s nine piece band and worship team will kick off the revival series on February 16.
