What a glorious time as tens of thousands of teenagers at almost a hundred venues across America gathered to learn how to share Jesus and then went out to witness and pray with people outside. They returned to give thrilling reports of people saved and prayed with.
It was a powerful time great singers like Shane & Shane etc. ministered. Then Greg Stier the founder and leader of Dare2Share.org delivered a powerful message on youth movements and awakenings in history going back to Jesus. It was one of the most powerful messages on Jesus Movements and revival I’ve ever heard.
The live audience and the thousands viewing the simulcast did not know I was there. Greg called me onstage with the cross as he said I was one of the original Jesus People on Sunset Strip in Hollywood, California. The moment was electric! I shared a short word and them lead in a prayer of anointing and empowering the young people to allow Jesus to work through them for a new Jesus Movement. In the prayer I asked for the teens to answer to God ‘Here am I Lord Send Me’!!!!
I then lead everyone in a Jesus Cheer. I stared the Give me a J cheers back in 1968. Give me a J!!! E!!! S!!! U!!! S!!! What does that spell? JESUS!!! ‘What are you gonna do with Jesus? Go! Go! Go! Sophia our teenage daughter came up and stage and helped me with the cheer.
Following that two young people came up on stage, one boy and one girl. I put the cross and the girls shoulder and prayed. Symbolically passing the cross and the anointing and mission of taking the cross and the message of Jesus to the world in a fresh move of the Holy Spirit in Revival Awaking. They carried the cross into the audience to cheers and praise to God. We believe this will ignite the sharing of Jesus and His love all over the nation and world.
At the age of 77 and on October 27 I will be 78 God willing, this was a wonderful event for me to be a part of. The old man at a teenager nationwide gathering. As we age we pause and look around and find great joy in seeing the youth on fire for Jesus. One generation passing from earth to heaven and leaving the message of Jesus to the youth to carry on!!!!! Thanks Greg for the great vision and commitment to minister with the youth for awaking in our world today.
We are leaving for more great events this week. Come back to read more on our website blog. Events are moving forward….’The Glory of the Coming of the Lord is a Hand’ Jesus told me to proclaim when I was on beside the Amazon River years ago.
Pilgrim followers of Jesus,

2018 Colorado – Our family attended this Dare2Share event. My son and daughter are pictured above with Bro. Blessitt. We were blessed to be a part of that special moment as he charged the participating youth to share the message of Jesus. I remember sharing with my children that I saw him carry the cross in my youth.
2025 Texas – Three years ago our family moved from Colorado to Amarillo, TX. God brought us to our home church, where all three of my children got born again, Holy Ghost filled, and water baptized.
On Friday afternoon, January 24th 2025, my son shared with us that he was sitting in traffic, looking around at all of these people and they were busy coming and going, with no mind on their eternity. In our home church, our Pastor has been teaching us that we need to obey Jesus in his charge to GO and preach His Gospel to this lost world. We understand that we as believers, young and old, regardless of gender, color or creed, we need to arise and shine, and reap the Harvest!
God placed it on my son’s heart to do something more in reaching the lost. He recalled his experience at D2S and remembered being charged by Bro. Blessitt to go out and witness to this world…to share Jesus, to share His Love.
He came home and expressed that he wanted to build a cross and to walk it on the streets of Amarillo, so he can witness to those that he encounters. He wants to be a roadblock to those on the highway to hell, and he wants the cross to be a wake-up call for all who see it. Both my son and daughter are walking through Amarillo, carrying the cross like Bro. Blessitt, sharing the Good News of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
We were saddened to hear about the recent passing of Bro. Blessitt, but we are rejoicing that he is on the other side of Glory…walking and talking with our Lord and Savior on the streets of gold. We pray for peace, comfort and strength over you Sis. Denise and Sophia, as you continue the mission until our King’s Return, Maranatha!
Until we meet again, Bro. Blessitt. Thank you for being a true inspiration to us and showing us by example, what it means to pick up and carry our cross, and follow Jesus!
