The lady who appears a few times in this video was on the audio cassette that appeared about the Lewis Revival in the late 70's early 80's in Christian bookshops. Way before we had the internet.
But it's the first time Ive seen her speaking. I thought that this may be a video others may not have heard before. It contains several stories about the Revival I'm not familiar with.
Thanks for sharing brother. brother, I have seen these before and they are part of a documentary I believe that was done recently in the last few years.
For those not aware of this Revival in the Isle of Lewis in 1951 here is Duncan Campbell describing the work of God:
When God Stepped Down from Heaven by Duncan Campbell

Description: Listen to this first-hand account of the Lewis Revival during the early 1950s. Duncan Campbell was God's instrument in this extraordinary awakening. In this tape Campbell recounts point-by-point this three-year movement of the Holy Spirit over the Hebrides Islands. Thousands were converted, conviction overwhelmed villages, outward sin disappeared, and prayer meetings were packed! Your heart will be thrilled as you listen to this tape about this heaven-sent revival in Lewis.
Okay thanks Greg. I've found out it was made by Sentinel Productions. They have said they had made several hours of interveiw footage of the islanders. It would be great if they were to release more.
Here is two of the movies he made:

Thank you brother David for posting this documentary.
What a blessing and an encouragment. I then listened to Duncan Campbell's account with Leonard Ravenhill praying at the end.

I first heard of the Hebrides Revival on sermonindex Greg.
So much of our Christian heritage was lost to so many of us until God restored it with these internet connections by his servants. I thank Him for the restored connections, in spite of all the evil and temptation Satan throws in our way, He cannot stop the truth of Jesus Christ from going out into all the earth.
I thank God for all those unknown "techies, writers, recorders of the written and audio words." I remember seeing faithful men and women sitting in the little recording booths at churches, being faithful with casettes and before my time, reel to reels. An unsung and thankless job, but now, what has been preserved is going out into all the earth. Praise our Mighty God for all the details he worked out before we even knew what He would do!
Much appreciation,
In Christ,
Sister Leslie
I first bought the audio cassette of this revival when I was a young Christian. I enjoyed it quite a lot as I listened in my Flat (apartment) but I didn't understand what they meant by revival.
I had thought they were talking about people shouting "Praise God" loud in a meeting. A bit like a Hallelujah praise meeting.
Even though I heard the testimonies of the revival it didn't translate in my mind that it was the real Lord God visiting his people and coming down from heaven and staying for a long period. It took some more years for that to sink in.
Thank you Brother this led me to another great one.
Blessings
Frannie
