Why The Gathering matters

Across many communities in Nigeria, families face ongoing challenges. For many, opportunities for medical screening, basic medication and community support are rare.

The Gathering responds to both spiritual and practical needs, creating an atmosphere of prayer while delivering tangible outreach.

This year, The Gathering takes place on The Gathering Land
