Revival with Rick Martinez Refreshes Blythe

In January, Blythe sent out their second baby church. This one went into Brawley, CA, and God has been giving them tremendous favor.

We have had several teenagers come in and get saved. They are hungry to see God do something in their lives. Because of this, we started an official youth group called Blythe iGNiTE. It is steadily gaining momentum and growing. These teens are getting involved in various ministries in the church and are catching a vision of evangelism. It is always good to see the youth take part in what God is doing in the city and our local congregation. They add a fresh fire to the work of God.

Our One80 concert continues to see visitors, backsliders and sinners saved. New bands are forming, raising up, and stepping in to help other surrounding churches as well as consistently evangelize our own city.

Our weekly new converts class encourages and teaches new believers the Word of God. It has been a foundational element in the lives of d States

Pastor Rick Martinez ministe the precious new converts that God is drawing in.

We recently started a Spanish service on Thursday nights to accommodate the Spanish community. They have been experiencing tremendous favor and have had a steady flow of visitors and some that are already starting to come regularly.

We continue to do one-on-one witnessing, follow up, One80 concerts, various outreaches and movies in the park to draw visitors and sinners to church, so they have the opportunity to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. As a result, more than 476 salvations and 30 water baptisms have been recorded and we are believing God for more.

In March we had a revival with Pastor Rick Martinez. He used to live in Blythe and pastor the church here so he is well known in the community. God moved powerfully in that revival and many people were saved and many backsliders came back. We are extremely grateful for him and Cecy coming and ministering to our congregation.

Recently a woman came in who was demon-possessed. After service, our Pastor prayed over her and she started to manifest. Several new converts who were present, saw this and were encouraged and stated how powerful God is. Through seeing ers in Blythe, CA this, they saw that the spiritual world is real, the devil can possess someone but that our God is bigger and more powerful.

With astonishment in their voice, a new convert couple declared, “Wow, this is real! We are going to sell out to God and we’re all in.” Since then they have stepped up their faithfulness and we’re seeing them start to grow in their faith.

We are continuing to believe God for more fruit, more dominion, and that God would continue building HIS church in this city.

We are so grateful to Pastor Mitchell, Pastor Greg and the Prescott congregation. You all have truly given us a pattern to follow and showed by example how to evangelize and win our city. You are always in our prayers.
