A week-long community revival event, titled “Revival in the City”, is set to open its doors to the public later this month, hosted by the Church of God of Prophecy at its Buckley’s location in Basseterre. Scheduled to run from April 19 through April 24, the gathering centers on the core theme “A New Approach to Evangelism”, drawing its foundational message of hope and empathy from the biblical passage Matthew 9:36.
Unlike traditional indoor revival services, this event will be held under a custom green and white tent set up on the church’s Buckley’s grounds, designed to welcome all community members regardless of their background or current spiritual journey. The space is open to anyone seeking quiet reflection, heartfelt prayer, a sense of peace, or a personal spiritual message, with no requirements for attendance other than an open mind.
Leading the week of programming is Bishop Dr. Lionel Phillip Webbe, who will be joined by two featured guest preachers: Pastor Roosevelt ‘Sam’ Corbin and Pastor Winston Morrison, both hailing from nearby Nevis. The event kicks off with an opening service on Sunday, April 19, beginning at 6:30 PM. Following the opening night, nightly services will be held each Monday through Friday at 7:00 PM, giving community members flexible opportunities to join after work or daily obligations.
Event organizers extended an open invitation to the entire local community and any visiting guests, emphasizing that attendees are welcome to come exactly as they are. Whether someone is seeking a fresh spiritual start, hoping for a personal miracle, or simply looking to connect with other community members in a peaceful, welcoming space, all are encouraged to attend the services under the tent.
