Welcome to Arise My Love Events!
God spoke with me in January of 2017, --- “Ruth, do you remember how Prayer Gatherings were prevalent in the 80’s, 90’s? My people grew and were taught many concepts of faith and prayer. Bring back the gatherings to enable my people to be strong in the Lord and mighty to do exploits in My Name."
