Azusa Street Mission & Historical Society

Azusa Street Mission & Historical Society (known as Azusa Street Mission) is based in

Los Angeles, California. Fred and Wilma Berry founded the Azusa Street Mission in

2006 with the goal to educate the public about the historical significance of the

Azusa Street Mission and the global Pentecostal Movement's impact on society. The

organization’s mission is to carry the flame of Azusa to the next generation

throughout the nations.

Azusafest Background

Azusafest is an annual gospel music celebration hosted by Azusa Street Mission & Historical Society to

commemorate the Azusa Street Revival.

Over a century ago, a partially-sighted African American minister, William J. Seymour, came to Los

Angeles to share the message that the Holy Spirit still baptizes people with the evidence of speaking in

tongues. His early efforts to preach the Pentecostal message were rejected. Church leaders were

suspicious of his religious doctrine and his teachings, but he persevered and kept on praying.

In April of 1906, a powerful outpouring of the Holy Spirit occurred within a small group of worshippers.

There were physical and mental healings, speaking in unknown languages and many other miraculous

and inexplicable occurrences. The news spread and soon hundreds of people started coming from all

over the world to the Apostolic Faith Mission on Azusa Street in Los Angeles seeking to receive the Holy

Spirit.

The Azusa Street Revival lasted over three years and is widely considered to be the primary catalyst that

sparked the worldwide Pentecostal Movement. Currently, it is estimated that over 800 million

Pentecostals in the United States, Latin America, Africa and Asia can trace their religious origins to the

Azusa Street Revival and Bishop Seymour.

Fred and Wilma Berry carry on the history of Azusa Street as international representatives through the

Azusa Street Mission & Historical Society. The organization's mission is to carry the flame of Azusa Street to

the next generation throughout the nations of the world.

The Azusa Street Mission organizes and hosts an annual Azusa Street Festival, called Azusafest. This festival

commemorates the Azusa Street Revival of 1906. The Azusafest celebration, normally held in Los Angeles

since 2006, began traveling to the nations when the celebration was invited to Ghana in 2011. Last year,

Azusafest was held in Brazil with over 3,000 leaders in attendance.

They made up 8.5 percent of the world's population and 27 percent of all Christians. There were

279 million Pentecostals and over 300 million Charismatics (the figures for Charismatics include

both the Charismatic Movement in the historic churches as well as the neocharismatic

Trends in Christianity (continued)

Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity is second in size only to the Roman Catholic Church

(Note that the figures for Charismatics includes 120 million Catholic Charismatics who would also

be counted as part of Roman Catholicism).3

In Brazil, Pentecostalism has grown so rapidly that statistics gathered for the World Christian

Encyclopedia in 2000 show followers made up nearly 47 percent of the population,4 while the

most recent census taken by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) in 2010

records approximately 42.3 million people (or 23 percent of the population) as Pentecostal.

The top two largest national Christian populations are United States - 246,780,000 (79.5% of the

Population) and Brazil - 175,770,000 (90.2% of the Population).5

Musical Guests

rich musical heritage. At age four, he began playing the violin. He won numerous

awards from the age of nine, and left home to study violin with Fredell Lack in Houston,

Texas, when he was only thirteen. He attended Meadowmount Summer Music School,

Ivan Galamian's Strings Camp, for seven consecutive years from the age of thirteen to nineteen. Sklar

"Covenant Rider." "El Shaddai," Dr. Sklar's first album as a signed artist with Integrity Music, Inc., was

recorded with the National Philharmonic Orchestra of London in 1994. It stands as a tribute to his

pioneering efforts to blend classical orchestral stylings with the Christian worship realm. His next album,

"Songs of Zion," also recorded with London's National Philharmonic Orchestra, is dedicated to the nation

of Israel and the Jewish people. Maurice participated in the huge Hosanna-Integrity Music project,

"Shalom Jerusalem." In this live worship concert recorded in Jerusalem, he is the primary instrumental

soloist, and joins his musical gifts with fellow Messianic Jew, vocalist Paul Wilbur. Released to nearly 100

nations throughout the world in 1995, it has been the largest selling video ever produced by Integrity
