Did you ever hear of a church that bridged tribal divides? Right here in Los Angeles stands the Indian Revival Church. It’s a testament to the power of faith and community. In 1956, Assemblies of God evangelist Arthur Stoneking saw a need. Native Americans were moving to Los Angeles in droves. He established the Indian Revival Center, now known as the Indian Revival Church. Stoneking, a Winnebago himself, fostered unity. He brought together people from over 30 different tribes. He emphasized shared cultural values. This created a sense of belonging in a new urban environment. The church’s choir became renowned, singing and testifying in various Native American languages. They even recorded a popular LP. Stoneking also hosted a radio program with sermons in Native American languages, translated into English. The Indian Revival Church wasn’t just about religion. It was about healing. Stoneking highlighted stories of restored families and freedom from addiction. He saw “happy fellowship” among members of different tribes as a miracle in itself. The Indian Revival Church continues to serve the community. It welcomes people of all backgrounds, demonstrating the enduring strength of faith and unity.
