BURN Great Lakes includes the Burn in Chicago, IL, Chillicothe, OH, Detroit, MI, Marshall, MI, Toledo, OH, and the SE Wisconsin area. It is the vision and heart of BURN Great Lakes to see the fire of God’s presence ignite the heart of the church in cities across the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin; as well as extending into the southern Canadian Great Lakes region through extended times of worship and intercession. BURN Great Lakes exists to provide training, support, and direction for all of the Burn activities in the region.
Jeremy and Sandy Hudson are the BURN Great Lakes directors. They lived and ministered in the SE Wisconsin area (Kenosha, WI) before moving to Amarillo, TX where they lived for seven years before being called back to the Great Lakes area. Jeremy and Sandy got involved in Burn in Tulsa through a meeting with Sean Feucht and Brandon Snell. They have been involved in the Burn for over three years and were the Burn Directors in Amarillo, TX for most of that time. They helped plant the Burn in SE Wisconsin and also view Burn Chicago as part of their lineage in the Burn family. Burn Amarillo was the second Burn city outside of Tulsa, and the first with Directors who were not part of the original Burn at Oral Roberts University. They have been there to see Burn as it has grown from a few college students meeting together in churches around Tulsa into a world-wide worship movement!

Burn Chicago
Chicago is the third largest city in the United States. With a population of just under 3,000,000 people and over 100 neighborhoods, Chicago poses challenges and logistic issues that most other cities don’t have to deal with. To face these unique challenges, Michael Richter has spent the bulk of his time as the Burn Chicago director networking churches, prayer rooms, and worshipers. Our vision for Burn Chicago is to see it grow into several Burn furnaces scattered throughout the Chicago area. This will require a large team of dedicated leaders. We are in a time of transition in Chicago as Michael works to sell his home and move. Join us in prayer as we seek God’s direction for the city. If you are interested in working with the Burn in the Chicago area, please contact us at jeremyh@theburn247.com
