Is this what you are talking about? I received this by e-mail..
"It is with great excitement and blessing that I send
you this.

We are in apostolic revival and it is already
spreading across our nation. I am pleased to report to
you that on Friday (March 2, 2007) 720 Messianic Jews
(four congregations) were baptized in Jesus' name, and
that 102 of them received the Holy Spirit as they came
up out of the water.

It gives me great joy to report to you that Saturday
(March 3, 2007) over 1000 (one thousand) Messianic
Jews (five complete congregations) were filled with
the Holy Spirit evidenced by speaking in other tongues
as the Holy Ghost swept over that building.

Two young boys began to dance in the Holy Ghost, and
speak in other tongues before one lesson could be
taught, or one message could be preached. A wave of
the Holy Spirit swept through the place and nearly
everyone there were filled with His Spirit. They ran,
danced, shouted, jumped, rolled and rejoiced as the
Spirit of God transformed their lives.

Today (Sunday, March 4, 2007) a Messianic congregation
in Lincoln, Nebraska will be presented the idea of
being baptized in Jesus' name, and told of the
infilling of the Holy Spirit.

Our time is now; let us go in boldness to fulfill His
will.

Yours for revival,"

Rev. Russell W. Wolf
Nebraska District

speaking of the Russian Pentecostals, wasn't it discovered that they were trinitarian AoG ?
Do you really have any idea where most of the Jews live??

How would you know how many Jews are in ND??

Plus it was Nebraska where this happened or was purported to have happened.

While the email posted by Triple E doesn't show this, most of the "revival" was in California --- not Nebraska.

I was born and raised in Nebraska and have many friends and ministers still there. I know Rev. Wolf personally. He's a good man, very outgoing, energetic, charasmatic, however, he has a tendancy to exaggerate things at times and even outright lie if it's in his best interest.

Now I'm not willing at this time to say that this report is completely false. I'm hoping for the best. However, I've personally contacted several Rabbi's, including one from Nebraska and many from California (one of whom is on the Executive Board of the Messianic Jewish Association of America) --- and none of these Rabbi's have heard or know of this report or this "revival."

The question was why make this up? My guess is elections are this year in Nebraska for the District Superintendent position, but I could be completely wrong. And I hope I am wrong for the sake of Rev. Wolf, the Nebraska District and the UPCI in general.

On CAF they had contacted the California area where this was purported to happen and no one knew about it?
