Revive Church 2022
Annual
Report
It has been an amazing year with so many amazing stories. We want to share them with you.
Letter From Pastor Derik
The year 2022 was truly a year we will never forget! It was the first full year in our new facility and boy were we ready for it! After 2-1/2 years of being portable through a global pandemic we couldn’t have been happier to have a place to call home and one that we own. As your pastor I want to thank all of you for sticking with Revive through this entire transition! It was a difficult season especially with the unknowns we faced in covid, but we are still here and stronger now than we ever have been.
This past year was the year of Provision. Seeing the response from different people around the world giving to the initiatives we had was amazing! We almost tripled the amount we have given away in any year as well as accomplishing so many high-budget renovations to better facilitate the growth in our new building. Our hearts couldn’t be more full now being in our new home! However, we know it was God who brought us here and to Him goes all the Glory!
We are excited for the momentum He is bringing in 2023 and invite you to take a bigger leap of faith this year than you ever have!! Some of the ways this could be done is through serving in one of our ministries, starting to tithe, connect in a ReGroup for the first time, or start being a mentor to someone in church or connect with someone needing mentoring. The new you starts with a decision. It’s a decision that you will be 100% sold out to Jesus and willing to do whatever He asks you to do!
Now this might sound like a lot, but I promise you this from experience, He will never let you down, and you will always be more fulfilled when you step up to the plate! Thank you for another amazing year, and here’s to a great year of Momentum!
- Pastor Derik Kerber

Mission Work
We funded worldwide mission work this year more than ever before. Jesus called us to help those in need, and that is exactly what we did.
Between Africa, India and Nepal in the last year with the sewing programs we were able to bless and help at least 2 to 3 hundred girls. Between those who are poor, orphans and widows. The total sum of financial help for these three countries was approximately $10,260.-Jim Hetzel Missionary
You helped these beautiful woman Revive Church from your generous donations.
The next big thing that we all did together was in schooling which consists of either starting a new school or giving out school supplies, bibles etc to children was $7,500.-Jim Hetzel Missionary
Just like we do here at home because of your generous donations we were able to help bless these beautiful children with school supplies they need to grow in their education and walk with Jesus Christ.
Then the third biggest thing was the building of ovens and kitchens , the building programs such as the Bible trading center in Nepal, and children’s church / sewing / and nursery center building. The total was about $4,500.
Look at those smiling faces! Revive Church you were a part of that because of your giving heart!
We were blessed to not only purchase this van for this percious family in Ukraine during their time of need but we were able to home them here and give them sanctuary during the war between Ukraine and Russia. Thanks to you Revive Church this family was able to find sanctuary within the United States and are now settled within Flordia after residing in Vermont for a short time.

Jesus told us to "Go into the world and preach the gospel to all creation". Our heart's desire is to fulfill this command every day and make a difference in our community.
Our Goals of 2022
We have big plans to accomplish and dreams to reach here at our church, and we absolutely would not be able to be successful in our pursuits if it were not for our faithful givers. 2022 was our year of Provision. We had our highest tithe and offering rate in the history of the church, as well as the highest percentage of participation. Your support and faithfulness to the work of God has been amazing, and we are so thankful.
We believe in what God is doing at our church, and from the beginning of this year we wanted people to come and see for themselves. Thanks to our higher outreach numbers and God's grace, weekly church attendance in 2022 increased by 30.2%. That is the highest growth percentage we have seen in years and we expect that trend to continue into 2023.

"I felt led to this church when I found it online and we attended for the first time on Sunday. It was an amazing experience and the sermon had me moved to tears the whole time. Our daughter went in apprehensive and shy about joining a new group of kids, but left with so much excitement to return and even asked about how she could get baptized on the drive home. I feel we've found our church home!."

"Yesterday was my second time going to a Sunday Service at Revive Church. Everyone is so helpful and kind, especially when trying to keeping tabs on two little ones. The ladies in the daycare room are so patient and loving.
The messages that Pastor Derek delivers are so insightful and truly come from the book of God. I’m very glad and thankful to feel so welcomed here"

We started going to Revive Church almost 4 years ago. The time has flown so quickly and I can’t believe that we have been there this long. What I see there is a family sold out to Christ and a desire to spread the good news. I see our pastor who is relatively young in age but he is way beyond his years in spiritual wisdom. I’m thankful for the time we have spent there and I would hope that if you want to grow in spirit and truth that you would go to Revive Church. The door will be open to you and a smile will be waiting for you. But even more important is that the invitation to invite Jesus into your heart and grow in the knowledge of God is evidenced by the people who go there and the love that is shared. Bless you.
