'Wichita Awakening' seeks repentance, revival in Kansas
The first stop on a national tour of prayer and awareness that follows up last weekend's large-scale prayer and fasting event, "The Call," is a three-day stop in Wichita, Kansas, to seek for revival and an end to abortion.
A reported 100,000-plus showed up at the Tennessee Titans' home stadium in Nashville July 7 to focus on prayer and repentance for the sins of the nation. On Saturday, youth from "The Cause USA" will join Operation Rescue and pro-life leaders from around the nation in the home city of widely known late-term abortionist George Tiller to pray for the sin of abortion in what some term the nation's late-term abortion capitol.
Operation Rescue's Cheryl Sullenger says some 500 to 1,000 young people are expected to come to Wichita, sensing the Holy Spirit saying now is the time to be there.
"We're just seeing ... a move of God's spirit across our country, really reaching out to the younger generation," she observes. "They seem a lot more concerned with spiritual things and taking their faith seriously, and feet to go with that. They're more and more pro-life." They want to make a difference for Christ, she adds. "This is a real exciting thing that we're seeing going on here."
Sullenger says she thinks willingness to act is a hallmark of true revival, and Operation Rescue is hoping that The Cause USA will bring that attitude with them to Wichita, and that it will spread to other parts of the nation as well.
