Representing more than thirty countries around the world, some 102,000 people gathered 3-5 August 2007 in Anaheim, California, USA, for the annual Southern California Harvest Crusade with Greg Laurie—an event that has been a fixture in Orange County since 1990. Over the course of the weekend, 9,521 people made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ. Another 32,959 people watched the Harvest Crusade virtually over the Internet at www.harvest.org, with seventy-one of those viewers indicating professions of faith in Christ. For the first time this year, a Harvest Crusade blog gave readers up-to-the-minute information about the crusades and gave opportunity to post feedback. The Internet broadcasts are archived and available for viewing. In addition, the Harvest Crusade may be viewed via podcast at www.harvest.org/podcast. (ASSIST News Service)
