In the fourth major collegiate revival in less than a month, thousands of students gathered at the University of Arkansas on Thursday night, Sept. 19, to seek Jesus Christ and find salvation in His name.
Unite US reports that 10,000 students from 67 different universities gathered in Bud Walton Arena.
“Jesus met us there,” the ministry said in an Instagram post. “We were blown away by His presence in the room and how it carried over to baptisms. It was a night we’ll never forget.”
One young man shared his powerful testimony right before getting baptized at the event, saying, “I spent a lot of years running from God. I just came to Jesus about five weeks ago, but I got caught up in, I’ll just say it, cocaine and alcohol.
I had a lot of really near-death experiences and I think Jesus had His hand on my life because I should not be here.”
Evangelist Tonya Prewett reports that, so far, over 2,000 salvations and over 800 baptisms have taken place through the Unite US campus events over the past year.
“I believe this is the generation that will usher in the greatest move of God we’ve ever seen, and we’re seeing that,” Prewett said during a recent podcast. “And I do believe what we had in the fall and the spring of this past year is just the beginning.
Greater things are coming, and I feel for the end of this year and leading into 2025, something greater is coming. God is doing something across this nation… I do believe this move of God on college campuses is ushering in a greater awakening.”
Last week, the Unite US movement also showed up at the University of South Carolina where more signs of revival were on display.
Over 4,000 students gathered to lift the name of Jesus at Colonial Life Arena, and hundreds of students made the life-changing decision to follow Jesus. Many were also baptized in the Thomas Cooper Library Fountain afterward.
“God moved. Students were set free. Unite South Carolina was UNREAL,” the Unite US ministry posted.
And it’s not just happening at Unite US events. Multiple outbreaks of revival have taken place in the past weeks and months through other ministries. In one example from a church in Texas, God moved powerfully on the Corpus Christi campus of Texas A&M University.
A campus gathering organized by New Life Young Adults just two weeks ago drew more than a thousand students to hear the gospel.
Pastors Michael and Bonnie Fehlauer of New Life Church posted, “Nearly 1500 students last night Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi… 62 water baptisms… Powerful testimonies… Many physically healed and delivered! Jesus is Lord….. and He is coming back.”
