Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church, a longtime fixture of the Savannah faith community, is hosting the 2026 Greater Works Revival to encourage believers to deepen their walk with Christ and experience renewed spiritual vigor.
Event details
The revival will take place on two consecutive Tuesdays in September:
- Tuesday, September 22, 2026 – 7:00 p.m. – Guest speaker Rev. Tammie McFadden of Greater Gaines AME Church.
- Tuesday, September 29, 2026 – 7:00 p.m. – Guest speaker Rev. Michael Smith of First Mt. Bethel Missionary Baptist Church.
Both evenings will be held at Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church, 1008 May Street, Savannah, GA 31415. Attendees are encouraged to bring friends, family and a heart ready for greater blessings.
Why the revival matters
In a time when many families seek stable, faith‑centered community, the Greater Works Revival offers a focused opportunity for worship, teaching and fellowship. The church’s leadership emphasizes that the event aligns with the biblical call to “press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:14), urging participants to expect spiritual growth and renewed purpose.
Guest speakers
Rev. Tammie McFadden, known for her dynamic preaching at Greater Gaines AME Church, will share a message centered on the power of prayer and the importance of intergenerational faith transmission. Rev. Michael Smith, a veteran pastor from First Mt. Bethel Missionary Baptist Church, will focus on living out Christian values in everyday life, offering practical guidance for families navigating modern challenges.
Community involvement
The revival is open to all members of the Savannah community, regardless of church affiliation. Organizers hope the event will foster new relationships among local congregations and provide a platform for collaborative service projects that benefit the broader city.
How to attend
There is no registration fee. Attendees simply need to arrive at the church by the start time. Parking is available on the church’s lot, and volunteers will be on hand to assist with seating and any special needs.
What to expect
Each night will feature a blend of contemporary worship music, traditional hymns, a brief period of prayer, and a sermon from the guest speaker. After the service, a time of fellowship will allow participants to connect, share testimonies and discuss ways to apply the message in their homes, workplaces and neighborhoods.
Looking ahead
Church leaders view the Greater Works Revival as the kickoff to a series of upcoming events aimed at strengthening families, supporting youth ministries and expanding outreach to underserved areas of Savannah. They invite the community to stay engaged through the church’s regular bulletin and social media channels for future announcements.
