Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints – Jude 1:3

The Revival Centres Church is a world-wide church with assemblies in many countries. We base our teaching on the Bible, our understanding enlivened by having received the Holy Spirit.

This includes an expectation of miracles, signs following believing, and regular instruction from the Bible. ‘Contending for the faith’ is to follow and apply the scriptures in a holistic and correct way. Or put simply, whatever He says to you, do it! (John 2:5)

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness – 2 Timothy 3:16

Do you want to receive the Holy Spirit NOW?

Scriptural explanation of key beliefs, including the gospel of Jesus’s death and resurrection, receiving the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues, healing, and the future.

Our foundation is based on the events recorded in Acts 2 in the Bible, where the disciples of Jesus were filled with the Holy Spirit. This same experience, with the Bible sign of speaking in other tongues, is still how people join the church today.

… and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance – Acts 2:4

Our founding pastor, the late Lloyd Longfield, was filled with the Holy Spirit in 1948. From these exciting beginnings, the Revival Centres Church has grown.

Over the years we’ve been known as Revival Centres of Australia, Revival Centres International, and more recently Revival Centres Church.

Importantly, our adherence to the full gospel message hasn’t changed.

Having a personal relationship with God is the promise of the Bible. In a Revival Centres Church you will meet normal people who have had an extraordinary experience. The new testament of the Bible describes a church that changed the world, full of people who knew God. The Bible talks about salvation as a foundational experience from an answering God.

Do you want to receive the Holy Spirit NOW?

Jesus didn’t die to bring us dead religion. He came to fulfil God’s plan, and pour out the promise of the Holy Spirit.

He didn’t rely on finding strong, smart, good people. Instead He sent the Holy Spirit to change people. He called it being born again. Afterwards, nothing would be the same again. Ever.

So what’s next?

The Revival Centres Church youth group runs from early high school age, through to young adults. Youngies is a great opportunity to spend time with Spirit-filled people, who have the same Holy Spirit experience.

The Youngies run activities most weekends. These activities focus on good, clean fun and encouragement from each other, and the Bible. Many Revival Centres Church assemblies have a Youngies group.

Since the early 1970s when our first mission began, the Revival Centre Church have been thankful for the opportunity to take the gospel all over the world. Our mission areas have been most rewarding, as they are often at the forefront of rapid growth in numbers of people receiving the gospel. The opportunity to witness many people being baptised, and filled with the Holy Spirit is not something soon forgotten.

Our missions work with an emphasis on equipping local people to run their own assemblies. We have no standing missionaries, preferring to train and encourage the locals in the gospel and in church leadership, at the same time avoiding a paternalistic approach.

Missions are supported with regular visits, particularly from pastors and officers, but also groups of assembly members and young peoples groups. These visits are rewarding – both for the visitors and their hosts. Here are some mission stories:
