Thousands gathered at Times Square, New York City, last Monday for a massive revival event for a time of worship and prayers for deliverance from multiple struggles.
During an interview with CBN Digital, Pastor Mike Signorelli of V1 Church in New York City shared that he was permitted Democratic Mayor Eric Adams’ office to hold the event.
“This was not just us street preaching and drawing a crowd,” Signorelli said. “We were given permission. It was a permitted event.”
According to CBN News, Signorelli noted that the turnout at the gathering was “insane.”
“It was just insane,” the pastor said. “At the end, I prayed for people to receive the gifts of the spirit. There were hundreds of people who reported receiving the gift of tongues. New York City streets were filled with people singing in the spirit; we had many drug addicts surrender drugs, people cancel suicides.”
Regarding the “best part” of the event, Signorelli shared that he commissioned people out into the streets following the gathering to “lead the lost to Jesus Christ.” As a result, many across the city came to save faith.
The pastor told CBN Digital that last Monday’s event was from his recently released video that went viral. The video showed Signorelli praying for NYC after Mayor Eric Adams warned of possible lone-work attacks in light of Hamas’ attack on Israel.
“I did a viral video, where I walked the streets of New York City just prophesying and declaring what I believe that God was doing in the midst of that time,” Signorelli explained. “It went viral.”
He noted that the video allowed him to connect with Adams’ office and that he was given a permit when he proposed the idea of the event.
“I feel like it was a historic event because … it’s very difficult to draw that many people in one place, in a public space,” Signorelli said. “And, to me, that was the sign that America is truly ready for revival. We’re in revival, we’re in those days.”
In addition to the event, an encore presentation of Signorelli’s hit film “The Domino Revival,” was released in theaters on Nov. 13 following its initial release on Oct. 14
“‘The Domino Revival’ takes moviegoers on an extraordinary journey with Mike Signorelli and a group of revivalists during a pivotal period in our nation’s history,” a synopsis reads. “As society’s fascination with the supernatural intensifies, this film unveils the awe-inspiring power of Jesus Christ. Through compelling preaching, documented miracles, triumph over despair, and liberation from demons, ‘The Domino Revival’ captures the essence of spiritual hunger.”
Signorelli encouraged people to watch the film in theaters on Nov. 13 with their friends and family.
“This is not just a movie,” Signorelli said. “It’s an experience.”
