Former NFL Player Leads Revival at Canyon Ferry
By: Terri Paske
Wallace
Francis, former NFL Atlanta Falcon, now of Ambassadors for Christ
International led revival at Canyon Ferry Road Baptist Church. His
message was revival in the local church, our nation and for every
individual. He met with 615 people while in Helena; in groups from 5 to
100. The revival was preceded by many hours of prayer. Beginning with a
week of evening prayer meetings leading to a Solemn Assembly Service.
The church held a 16 hour prayer vigil on Saturday.
Effectively communicating to all ages, Francis touched lives in a way no
other guest has. After hearing the former NFL player in an evening
service, Canyon Ferry Road Baptist Church high school students invited
him to attend an informal gathering during their school lunch.
He
spoke of his football days, but emphasized the importance of having a
personal relationship with Jesus. He also spoke to the Christian high
school and was again well received.
Wallace
Francis brought the Word of God, the message of intimacy with Christ,
the value of worship and the importance of prayer. He challenged us to
repentance and to reach our community through revival.
