Seven million members of the global church have gathered in person and online to worship, pray, and hear testimonies of what God is doing all around the world.

Gather25 was the first event of its kind, using AI and technology to bring Christians from 225 countries and territories together for a 25-hour gathering of the church.

During the event, live sessions were streamed from the UK, New Zealand, Malaysia, Romania, Rwanda, Peru, and the US, and translated into 87 languages in real time, while 21,000 other groups met in churches and homes around the globe.
