Wikipedia's article on the Azusa Street Revival, community-edited. Reliable for the settled start date, 9 April 1906, led by the African American preacher William J. Seymour at 312 Azusa Street in Los Angeles, continuing until roughly 1915 with the most intense activity in its first three years; and for the movement's rapid global reach, spreading to over fifty nations within two years, an event commonly regarded as the beginning of the modern Pentecostal movement, today counting more than 500 million Pentecostal and charismatic believers worldwide.
