Gather25 concluded with a powerful message: the Gospel must advance like never before, and it’s time for Christians to respond. On Saturday (1 March), an estimated seven million people from 225 countries and territories joined the 25-hour global gathering—online, across seven live locations, broadcast and live streamed on TBN, and in more than 21,000 group gatherings in churches and homes. From every continent, Christians came together to witness how God transforms lives and join in prayer, worship, repentance, and commissioning.
This event marks a historic moment for the global Church. For the first time, technology and AI enabled a monumental achievement: live sessions from the United States, New Zealand, Malaysia, Romania, Rwanda, the United Kingdom, and Peru were translated into 87 languages in real time, extending the reach of Gather25 far beyond physical borders.
With this expanded reach, Gather25 highlighted powerful stories of salvation from around the world and from the persecuted church. Across the world, speakers delivered a message to Christians across denominations: the Church is not shrinking – it’s growing.
Self-organized group gatherings also took place – from living rooms and remote villages to large gatherings like the one in Cebu City, Philippines, where over 5,000 people gathered outdoors to watch the sessions. Over 117,000 prison inmates in the US were able to gather with the global Church through the PandoApp from God Behind Bars. Gather25 participants even got news from Antarctica where Christians from the local scientific bases joined together in the local Chapel of the Snows. In addition, TBN aired multiple segments over the course of the weekend, with a global network that reached two billion potential viewers.
A global lineup of speakers and worship artists that included Jennie Allen, Christine Caine, Tim Godfrey, Sergio Hornung, Matt Maher, Dr. Charles Mugisha, Matt Redman, Sinach, Andres Spyker, Mark Varughese, Rick Warren, Darlene Zschech and many more also challenged participants to take action—through prayer, sharing the Gospel, and supporting organizations focused on Bible translation, church planting, pastoral training, and poverty relief.
Jennie Allen, founder and visionary of Gather25 and one of the speakers, reflected on its impact: “The only way that this happens – that denominations come together, countries come together, continents come together – is because of prayer. What we saw at Gather25 was a picture of heaven—believers from every nation, tribe, and language coming together with one mission: to make Jesus known.”
For Pastor Mmbongya in Malawi, the impact of the event was powerful:“We thank Jesus for the global Church gathering in Malawi at the Dzaleka refugee camp. We have seen the Holy Spirit move through prayer and worship, with great encounters.”
Gather25 was amplified through partnerships with the YouVersion Bible App, Finishing the Task, World Evangelical Alliance, RightNow Media, Bible Gateway, Revive Europe, Arise Asia and many others.

About Everybody Everywhere
Long before the vision for Gather25 existed, God was already at work bringing together movements and organizations around a shared vision: to share the gospel everywhere by 2033. Through the work of gathering the global church through Gather25, it’s become apparent that this is a consistent vision across global ministry movements. The drumbeat is this: the time is now to revive the Church to complete the Great Commission in our lifetime, and it’s possible.
Everybody Everywhere is a movement of Jesus’ followers committed to praying and sharing the gospel in neighbourhoods and cities all over the world. There are parts of the world where it is difficult to get the gospel and that’s why the global Church is invited to financially support this vision and the work of partners.
