The European Congress on Evangelism, hosted in Berlin, is set to see 1,000 pastors and ministry leaders from 56 countries come together from across the continent in late May (27-30) to promote the bold proclamation of the gospel.
The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA), which is hosting the event, described it as the biggest gathering of Christian leaders on evangelism in Europe for 25 years, since the organisation last hosted a conference in the continent in Amsterdam in 2000.
