Our prayer is “Revive us again, O’ Lord!”
We will be gathering for prayer each Sunday Evening from 6-8PM.
A “commodious stone building” was erected in the village of Brownville, New York, between 1818-1823, making it the oldest church building in Jefferson County. Originally, it was shared by all the churches in the village. In 1826 it was purchased by the Episcopal Church, who faithfully served this community until November 2021.
In November 1823, a young evangelist named Charles G. Finney, came to Brownville, following signs of revival that had begun to manifest here. Being snow-bound for the entire winter, he labored in this building, both in preaching and in prayer, until April 1824.
Fast forwarding to 2024, we plan to rent the former St. Paul’s Episcopal Church for the winter, with the idea of hosting prayer meetings and doing various kinds of outreaches, to see if a new church can be established in Brownville. We believe that by starting by building a house of prayer is the key to opening the heavens once again, so this community can experience a fresh outpouring of grace. If you would like more information about this, contact Brad and Nicole Berry, (315) 783-9583, and they will let you know what is currently happening in this historic old building on Washington Street in Brownville. Would you join us in praying for this?
