When studying real revivals...Azusa, Welsh, etc the movement changed a people, nation, or land. While I applaud your growth, personally I would say it would not fit the definition of what true revival is.

Revival, in the Bible anyways, is usually defined by whole nations turning around -aka, Nineveh. Another modern example may be what is happening/happened in Ethiopia. By this definition, Azusa street was a mere "church service".
