- I am a sinner, saved by the blood of Jesus. Living by God's grace to glorify Him. I am not of this world, am just a passerby. My blessed Hope is to come HOME.
What an amazing day we had at the Jesus Revolution Baptism at Pirate’s Cove. We baptized over 4000 people! I met people from all around the nation and even the world that came to town for this special event. May God bless everyone of them as they made this public stand for their fight in obedience to Jesus Christ in the waters of baptism!
Following last week's SoCal Harvest Crusade, where 32,500 people gathered and 6,794 made decisions to dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ, Pastor Greg Laurie held a massive baptism event this weekend at Pirates Cove in Corona Del Mar, California.
Just last month, approximately 4,100 people gathered at Pirate's Cove Beach for what was labeled as one of the largest water baptisms in history
However, on Saturday Pastor Laurie and Harvest Christian Fellowship leaders helped to baptize 4,500 people into the Christian faith, surpassing the previous record held by Oceans Church.
Laurie shared on social media the significance of baptizing others at Pirate's Cove Beach, stating "this of course is the site of the baptisms of the Jesus Movement" of the 1970s. He was among the many who were baptized there 50 years ago along with his wife, Cathe.
Between SoCal Harvest Crusade and the Jesus Revolution Pirate's Cove Baptisms, within one week, Laurie and Harvest Church have been able to help approximately 11,295 new Christians dedicate their lives to their Lord and savior.
Laurie's personal mission is "to know God and make Him known," which is evident in his Kingdom work happening in Harvest Church, in the public, and even in movie theaters through the "Jesus Revolution" film.
As one of the writers of "Jesus Revolution", Laurie shared "This film is touching lives all around the world! Right now, it's playing in the UK and it's a box office hit. Now, it's being dubbed in Spanish and will be opening in theaters in Mexico and Brazil on July 27."
3 truth-filled reminders as you step into the New Year:
1. God is good at being God. Trust Him!
2. Heartbreak is hard, but our God is strong.
3. Rest is a holy rhythm, not a prize to be earned. | @GraceV96

This Christmas I will not worry about the gifts I can’t afford or the pressure to have the perfect Christmas gathering. There’s more to life than these things. Today I choose to remember the true meaning of Christmas – the gift of Jesus Christ. (James 1:17)
