According to a Fox News report, the 13-day marathon worship session at Asbury University, which drew more than 50,ooo people from all over the country, has finally ended; school officials are saying the event is causing logistical issues.
“We had authorities that had to redirect traffic away from Wilmore. Our town’s institutions and our town’s infrastructure is just not in a place to absorb the influx of the blessed guests that we have had,” said Asbury University President Kevin Brown, according to Religion News Service.
From Fox News:
The evangelical service in Wilmore, Kentucky has been celebrating nonstop for two weeks in what many of its participants are calling a “revival.”
The movement began after students refused to leave following a chapel service last Wednesday, and the services have since grown to pack the school’s chapel with worshipers from all over the country.
The university designated Monday as the “concluding public worship service” of the event, stating that from Tuesday onwards services would be moved off campus.
