Extractions: Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship The story of Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship is indeed an interesting one. The (very) short version consists of a small Vineyard congregation located near Toronto Airport under the pastoral leadership of John and Carol Arnott. Earnestly seeking revival in their church, they eventually came to the decision of giving their mornings over to prayer. In time, the church experienced an amazing out-pouring of Holy Spirit-led revival and the congregation soon ballooned from a couple hundred to a few thousand. The Holy Spirit was working so strongly in the Toronto congregation that they committed themselves to nightly worship and revival services (7 days a week, 365 days a year). That was eleven years ago, during which time TACF has seen over 4 million people visit its congregation to participate in what by all accounts should be considered a true twentieth-century revival. But thousands continued to give their lives to the Lord, be renewed in their walk with the Lord, and healed of physical, mental and spiritual wounds. For those with an open mind, the proof that this is a work of God is in the fruit of the ministry rather than in the physical manifestations. Those experiencing the overpowering presence of the Spirit when they fell or uncontrollably laughed all attest to the spiritual healing they received therein. And TACF abounds with amazing testimonies of life-changing encounters with the Holy Spirit.

Extractions: By Alice Crann PENSACOLA - People frequently compare the Pensacola Brownsville Revival to the "Toronto Blessing." Both draw thousands of people from around the world. Both have been in existence for some time Brownsville's revival started in June 1995 and Toronto's in January 1994. Both promise an emotional and physical encounter with God. Both regard dramatically uncontrollable behavior as evidence of salvation and the presence of the Holy Spirit. A number of people who question the methods and theological fundamentals of the Brownsville Revival see indications that it was planned and modeled after what is going on in Toronto. The Toronto revival occurs at the Airport Vineyard Church, an independent charismatic church near Toronto's Pearson International Airport. John Arnott is the pastor and revivalist. The Toronto Blessing traces its origin to the signs and wonders philosophy of John Wimber, founder of the Vineyard faith, and to evangelist Rodney Howard-Browne, the exponent of the "holy laughter" concept. "Vineyard philosophy holds to a sound Christology but is steeped in psychology, inner healing, visualization, deliverance and occult-like experimental practices," said Albert James Dager. He heads an independent, nonprofit and nondenominational Christian watchdog organization based in Redmond, Wash. that analyzes Christian messages in the media.
Toronto Blessing Goes On 10 Years But to regulars at the Toronto Airport Vineyard Church (now the toronto airport christian fellowship, or TACF), this was the work of the Holy Spirit, http://www.rickross.com/reference/general/general617.html
Extractions: By Ron Csillag Toronto Ten years ago this month, worshippers at a small church a stone's throw from this city's airport began laughing uncontrollably. They also made animal noises braying, barking, howling and roaring. They collapsed to the floor, staggered about as if drunk, shook and jerked; wept, wailed and yelped. Faces contorted with tics. Groans and guffaws hung in the air. Bodies lay prone on the carpet. To the uninitiated, this was eerie stuff, resembling mass hysteria more than religious worship. But to regulars at the Toronto Airport Vineyard Church (now the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship, or TACF), this was the work of the Holy Spirit, and the genesis of a worldwide revival in the charismatic and Pentecostal movements. The phenomenon was first noticed on Jan. 20, 1994 and dubbed the Toronto Blessing by a glowing British press that acclaimed the strange signs and wonders at the church near the airport of Canada's largest city. "British Airways Flight 092 took off from Toronto Airport on Thursday evening just as the Holy Spirit was landing on a small building 100 yards from the end of the runway," enthused one widely circulated report.

Extractions: By Gary E. Gilley Something happened on January 10, 1994, at a Vineyard Church near the Pearson International Airport in Toronto that was unique in the history of professing Christianity. While some point back to somewhat similar phenomena during the Welsh Revivals, Cane Ridge Revivals (1800-1801), Charles Finney (1800s), and even the Great Awakening (1734-47), all of these pale in comparison to the claims of the "Laughing Revival" that received its energy, if not origin, on that cold day in Canada. Supporters say that on this occasion the Holy Spirit was poured out on that small congregation, resulting in spontaneous, uncontrollable laughter. Thus began a "revival" that continues to this day and has impacted churches throughout the world. Hundreds of thousands of visitors, including thousands of pastors, have attended the services at the Toronto Airport Vineyard (now called the Airport Christian Fellowship) in hopes of catching and transporting the spirit of this revival. And it seems to be working. Churches across the globe are claiming similar experiences, which, in addition to "holy laughter," include shaking, making animal noises, swooning, and being stuck in "Holy Ghost glue." It has been reported by some that up to seven thousand churches in Great Britain alone have experienced something similar to the Holy Laughter Revival.

Extractions: Name : Toronto Blessing (Beverley, 27) Founder : The phenomenon of "holy laughter," which is an important feature of the Toronto Blessing, is generally attributed to the revival work of South African evangelist Rodney Howard-Browne. The "holy laughter" and other manifestations of the Holy Spirit came to the Toronto Airport Vineyand Church in early 1994 via the preaching of Randy Clark, who had encountered the preaching of Rodney Howard-Browne in Oklahoma. While Howard-Browne is widely recognized as the founder of the "holy laughter" movement, he never preached at the Toronto Airport Vineyard Church . Date of Birth : Rodney Howard-Browne: 1952 Place of Birth : South Africa Year Group Founded : January 20, 1994 (Corelli, 56) Brief History Inspired by the preaching of Rodney Howard Browne, known for sparking behaviors such as "holy laughter," being slain in the Holy Spirit and drunkenness in the Holy Spirit, the Toronto Blessing started at the Toronto Airport Vineyard Church on January 20, 1994. Randy Clark, a Vineyard pastor from St. Louis, Missouri encountered Howard-Browne in Tulsa, Oklahoma and came under his influence. John Arnott, senior pastor of the Airport Vineyard Church had learned of these phenomenon and invited Clark to preach. To the great surprise of both, following the sermon people began to laugh hysterically, cry, leap, dance, and even roar as a result of what the church calls "a move of the Holy Spirit" (Beverley, 14). Aside from the "unusual" behaviors demonstrated by the people that night, a more "interesting" factor is that the "move of the Holy Spirit" still has not stopped. This phenomenon eventually became known as the "Toronto Blessing." Tens of thousands of people are flying to Toronto in order to participate in this movement. Following their exposure, many people often become evangelistic, zealous, and then spread the same activities to their respective places. As a result the "Toronto Blessing" has spread to evangelical congregations around the world.

Extractions: Charismatic Christians in the UK are claiming that God has turned their ordinary amalgam dental fillings into gold during church services. The church-goers believe they are experiencing a phenomenon reported by their Canadian counterparts last month, and associated to the Toronto Blessing. The appearance of precious metal fillings in the mouths of the faithful - as well as instances of gold dust appearing on their heads and hands - is being hailed as a miracle. And they say some of the fillings are even cross-shaped. Some church-goers claim to have received "many" fillings Several members of Folly's End Christian Fellowship in Croydon say they have been affected. The church's leaders - whose more usual dealings with the media have been to protest about proposals for lap dancing clubs - say they are awaiting confirmation from medical experts before giving the credit to a divine dentist. Senior pastor David Markee, who has invested in a dental mirror to look at "miracles", said: "Our God is big enough to do anything He wants but I have still been taken by surprise at this phenomenon.
