But then she found out about the late Evangelist that she couldn’t fall asleep Reinhard Bonnke. And later on, Jessi discovered the CfaN because of the fire burning School of Evangelism (SOE). So, she enrolled in the course inside her. She kept sharing even when she was financially broke.

The young evangelist made what she calls a “really She saw a vision of Huntington weird request” of him. She asked him if she could have a Beach wherein “thousands of “double portion” of his anointing. people were being baptized.”
The late, great evangelist looked her straight in the eye She said people were “turning and grabbed her hands. Then he told her, “You’ll receive the around and baptizing people, thing that you've asked for.” chaotic, no order.”
God said, “GO!”
God told her that it will be the “next revival that she will be a part of.” The revival will start through the “equipping of the Saints.” God wanted her to take that fire in her to others as well. So, without hesitation, Jessi obeyed and trusted God. She and her husband left everything in New York, including their jobs, and moved to California with a 2-month-old baby. They lived in a tiny apartment in Huntington Beach. They sacrificed everything for the vision God had for their lives.
For several years, they did ministry in that place and founded home churches called Salt Churches. But Jessi began to doubt if the vision God gave her would come to pass because nothing was happening.
Nevertheless, she kept trusting God. She kept doing things small—equipping and discipling people, teaching them to follow Jesus. And they continued to preach the Gospel in the streets.
In April 2019, she heard God telling her that the vision she saw would happen in the summer of 2020. So, Jessi co-organized the event called SATURATE OC 2020. When COVID-19 broke out, she thought it would no longer happen. But the Holy Spirit kept telling her it would still come to pass.
Although she lost partnerships in the SATURATE OC 2020 she had co-organized, God told them to keep going. They wanted to obey God even if that meant they had to go alone in the event. Then, an unexpected miracle happened!
Waves of revival at the seashore
Amidst the pandemic crisis, when California had prohibited public worship,
waves of revival took place at Lifeguard Tower, Huntington Beach.
In the spring of 2020, the vision God gave her finally came to reality. Thousands would come to the events and healings, miracles, and deliverances happened. And many got saved and baptized by the seashore! "What we are experiencing right now in California is nothing but miraculous. I know so many have prayed for revival and I’m really humbled that God is using our small family, our sweet friends, and this little lifeguard tower to ignite something in the hearts of believers," Jessi says.
Since the first week of July, when it started with only 300 people, these revival meetings now happen every Friday night.
“Hundreds of people are getting saved and baptized. And people are being miraculously healed. Like little children, people are crying out to God on their knees, weeping like 5-year-olds,” Jessi testified, amazed at what God is doing.
Even with the persecution they’ve endured, Jessi and her team aren’t affected because of the joy of salvation. They would rather obey God than men.
It’s incredible how one person like Jessi is impacting America today. Her obedience led her to this revival that God is stirring up in California in the middle of a global pandemic. How amazing is that?!
