This, of course, is the story of the Moravian revival that began in the first half of the eighteenth century. Christian persecution in Europe meant refugees who fled their homelands had gathered in Harnhut, the estate of the wealthy German count Nicholas Zenzendorf. Tensions arose for this disparate group of believers, but Moravian leader, Zenzendorf, and you see him there on the screen, he was committed to the way of peace and to the way of hospitality, and he wouldn't give up. And only three months after signing that covenant in July 1727 did they experience what we now know as the Moravian revival. That prayer meeting that began in 1727 didn't stop for over one hundred years.
