Hope Fest is bringing together one million believers across Los Angeles for 40 days of prayer, fasting, and evangelism throughout March and April. Organized by Hope California, the initiative mobilizes evangelists, missionaries, and volunteers to partner with local churches in sharing the message of Jesus and offering hope in communities across the city.
The outreach will culminate on April 11 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, where attendees will gather for worship, testimonies, baptisms, and messages from Christian leaders. Organizers draw inspiration from past spiritual movements, including the Azusa Street Revival, as they seek a widespread impact.
Mando Matthews, founder of Hope California, said, “I believe that God wants to pour His Spirit out in such a way where entire universities are shut down for what God is doing.”
Lou Engel of Lou Engel Ministries also called believers to participate, saying, “And so we are calling from all across California, young and old, even across America to gather once again to this stadium—the coliseum for Hope L.A.”
Efforts include multilingual outreach to serve diverse communities.
