(Worthy News) – Following the recent surge in large revival services on US college campuses, 6,000 students gathered at America’s Mississippi State University for a powerful time of evangelism, worship, prayer, and water baptisms last week, CBN News reports.
The October 1 service was organized by Unite US, an American “movement of college students united to lift the name of Jesus.” The movement was birthed following a 5,000-strong worship service at Auburn University’s Neville Arena in September last year, during which 200 students were immediately baptized.
“Jesus met us tonight in Humphrey Coliseum [on the Mississippi State University Campus,” Unite US said in an Instagram post about last week’s service. “Nearly 6,000 students worshipped together, confessed to sin that had been holding them back, and experienced freedom that can only be found in Him.”
“We are celebrating with every single student who took a step toward Jesus tonight, and believe this is only the beginning,” Unite US added in the post. “Thank you, Jesus, for how You are moving in this generation!”
In a statement to CBN about how she was impacted by the service in Mississippi, a student called Emma said: “I just feel like this is something I have been wanting to do for a long time. I kept telling myself I needed a perfect scenario to do it and I don’t think that I do. I just need to surrender myself and do it.”
