24-7 Prayer celebrated 25 years of existence at The Gathering in Rotterdam, which celebrated 25 years of prayer by reflecting on their journey so far and looking ahead to the future.

The interdenominational organisation, which exists to ‘revive the church and rewire the culture through non-stop night and day prayer,’ started with a student-led prayer vigil. Fast forward 25 years and now 78 nations pray as part of the movement, amounting to over 25,000 prayer rooms (virtual and in-person) and over 500,000 prayers, according to their website.

The annual three-day event was held at Kome En Zie Pentecostal Church in Rotterdam, and featured contributions from founder Pete Greig and National Directors from five continents, and seminars from various guests and a youth session.
