The Inspiring Journey of Pastor Amanda Colfax
In the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Pastor Amanda Colfax stands as a testament to the transformative power of faith, dedication, and community outreach. For over a decade, Amanda has been a devoted wife, mother, and a guiding force in the Christian landscape of Oregon.

Amanda's journey began with a radical transformation during her college years in 2013. What initially started as a pursuit of a law career took an unexpected turn towards business and charitable work after she experienced a profound spiritual awakening. In 2018, she earned her degree in business management and leadership from Portland State University, laying the foundation for her impactful contributions to society.

The turning point came in the form of the Jesus Revival Association, a nonprofit founded by Amanda in 2018. Alongside her husband, Gordon Colfax, and mentor Pastor Bob Harris, she has gone on to plant three churches, each becoming a beacon of hope in their respective communities—Albany, Salem, and Silverton, Oregon.

One of the distinctive features of Revival Church lies in its commitment to breaking down cultural and language barriers. In a region where diversity in Christian communities is uncommon, Revival Church stands out for its inclusivity, drawing a wide demographic of ethnicities and ages. The church emphasizes the training of Christians for ministry, fostering a community that is not only spiritually vibrant but also actively engaged in outreach.

A shining example of their commitment to community outreach is the recent toy drive organized in Salem, which reached over 400 people. The initiative provided hundreds of toys to families in need while also addressing the hunger prevalent in the community. Monthly efforts are directed towards serving the homeless population and spreading the message of hope through evangelization across the cities they touch.

Pastor Amanda is not confined to the pulpit; she actively engages with her local church community, often found preaching or leading worship. Her vision extends beyond the present, aiming to raise a generation of worshippers creating diverse music to glorify Jesus. The Revival Worship team, led by Amanda, has organized events throughout the Pacific Northwest and is currently working on new music with the intent of blessing the global church.
