Revival Gospel Singers
Mark 16:15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” NIV
What is now known as the Revival Gospel Singers was commenced by Alan & Margaret Dobson under the covering of Revival Life Centre Sydney Australia. It was 1994 and Alan & Margaret came to a new church. Having had some previous experience in ministry to nursing homes they spoke to the Senior Pastor, Norman Armstrong, about commencing their ministry under the covering of the church. There was an immediate blessing and encouragement to commence. Alan & Margaret faithfully pursued their evangelistic outreach ministry for over 25 years. Bringing in thousands of people to the Kingdom of God over the years. It was a good and fruitful ministry, being a salvation for the people and a satisfying blessing to the team members. A wonderful work for The Lord.
The ministry was such a blessing to the residents of the homes that it just had to be continued. The current leader sought and was encouraged to continue the work of the ministry. This was done with enthusiasm and continuity was achieved.
By this time the government had changed the name from nursing homes to Aged Care Homes. The name Aged Care Home Ministry did not convey the purpose of the ministry or what was being done.
A new name Revival Gospel Singers with a catchline of “Songs that you know. A message that saves” accurately describes what we do and what our purpose is. It is being well received and accepted in the homes that are visited.
The people that we minister to are quite often not very mobile or confined to chairs in their daily life. The team make visits to the aged care homes and go into the day rooms or lounges to bring joy and messages of hope to the people.
The format that is used in the homes is nearly the same as the recordings that we do. Song, prayer bible reading together with special biblical messages to introduce some songs.
Testimonials are coming in:
So Glad to hear Kim made it! It was lovely having you last week, the residents that can remember are still talking about the concert . Thanks for the timetable below, I will add locations and maps for Hammondville. Kindly give me 2 weeks to liaise with the whole village
Thank you for your wonderful performance, our residents loved it and hope to see you next time, I want to know the date that you can come to us, thank you.
Looking forward to your next visit.
With Gods willingness and blessings on the team, we expect that the programme will continue next year. Several the homes are already requesting for our visits to continue in 2023. We look forward to continuing to bring joy to the residents of the homes and most importantly winning souls into God’s Kingdom whilst there is still time.
