FRENCH CREEK (WV) – This year’s annual fall revival dates and times have been set, church officials have announced.  Beginning Sunday, Nov. 11, and ending Tuesday, Nov. 13, Evangelist Jason Runnels will minister in word and in song with all three evening services starting at 6:30 p.m.

“Revive, renew, restore and relive” is this year’s fall revival theme,” said Nancy Killingworth, the church pastor.

“We wholeheartedly promise that this three-day revival will be such a very special music, praise and high-energy worship service that no one will want to miss.”

Runnels began his full-time career in Christian Music in 1998, when he joined Tony Gore & Majesty. While traveling with Tony Gore & Majesty, he had the opportunity to sing in Ireland, Scotland, and London, England. In 2000, he was nominated as one of the top five young artists in Gospel Music by the readers of Singing News Magazine. In 2001, Jason was a part of the No. 1 song in America, “Blessed Be the Name of the Lord”.
