Church Revitalization is the process of leading a church that is plateaued or declining back to a healthy state. It is the restoring of a church's purpose of glorifying God & mission to reach the lost in their community. Only the Holy Spirit can revitalize a congregation, but He can use others to help in the process.
According to the Annual Church Profile, more than 70% of Ohio congregations have plateaued or declined in the past 5 years.
