What is MN Revival?

Welcome to MN Revival, a Christ-centered nonprofit organization with a clear mission: to foster unity, spiritual growth, and authentic community throughout Minnesota. Founded in 2019, MN Revival began with a simple but deep conviction—to make a meaningful impact in people’s lives by creating spaces where faith and fellowship can flourish across generations.

At MN Revival, we believe that authentic, Christ-centered relationships are the foundation of lasting transformation. Our mission is to cultivate environments where individuals and families—young adults, adults, and believers of all ages—can gather, grow in their faith, and build genuine connections rooted in the love of Jesus. We recognize the spiritual and cultural challenges facing our communities today and are committed to creating opportunities that encourage discipleship, biblical teaching, worship, and meaningful engagement.

Throughout the year, MN Revival actively hosts a variety of gatherings across Minnesota. These events range in size and format, from smaller, more intimate settings to larger, citywide worship experiences. Our smaller gatherings feature trusted leaders and speakers from across the state who bring biblical teaching, practical encouragement, and personal testimony. These environments are designed to foster deeper connection, thoughtful conversation, and spiritual growth.

In addition, MN Revival hosts powerful citywide worship nights that unite believers from different churches, backgrounds, and communities across the Twin Cities and beyond. These gatherings bring hundreds together in unified worship, clear Gospel proclamation, and corporate prayer, creating space for lives to be strengthened and transformed.

Everything we do flows from our commitment to the Gospel. At the heart of MN Revival is the desire to make Jesus known—proclaiming His truth, reflecting His compassion, and building a people grounded in His Word. We believe that when individuals and families encounter the love of Christ and walk in biblical community, true revival begins—not only in personal hearts, but across churches, cities, and throughout Minnesota.

MN Revival invites people from all walks of life to join us in pursuing a movement marked by unity, faithfulness, and bold love for Jesus. Together, we are believing for a strengthened Church, renewed communities, and a revival of hope across our state.

Influential Leaders who have supported and continue to pour into MN Revival.

One of the cornerstones of our growth has been the relationships we’ve built with a wide range of respected leaders and organizations across Minnesota. While not every organization formally sponsors or supports MN Revival, we’ve been honored to have leaders from places like Capstone Homes, Chick-fil-A, Kingdom Coffee, The Grove Church, Grace Fellowship Church, Golgotha Slavic Church, and Pulse speak into and pour wisdom into our community. Their voices, encouragement, and leadership have helped shape who we are.

We’ve also been blessed to host powerful worship nights in partnership with Eagle Brook Church and Eagle Brook Music, creating space for citywide worship and unity.

These leaders and ministries may support us in different ways, but each has played a meaningful role in influencing, equipping, and strengthening MN Revival as we continue pursuing community transformation and sharing the hope of Christ across Minnesota.
