About Gather25
Our Story
For over a decade, Jennie Allen has been inviting women from around the world to follow Jesus and to disciple others to do the same.
But in 2022, she began to wrestle with a question,
"What if Jesus came back in 10 years?”
Right now, there are 5.5 billion people on earth who don’t know Jesus. If we truly believed He was coming and coming soon, what would we do to reach them? What would the global Church be willing to do? Could 2.5 billion Christians on earth be mobilized to share the Gospel?
With this renewed urgency and vision, Jennie assembled a team. Throughout 2023, this group began to dream about what a gathering of the global Church - every man, woman, and child who follows Jesus - could look like, and Gather25 was born. It wasn’t just Jennie’s vision; it was the shared vision of many Jesus followers. It was clear that God was speaking to leaders across different streams about the next 10 years of the Church.
Major partners began to step in. The Gather25 team began visiting each continent to build relationships and explore possibilities. Then, in February of 2024, the first invitation went out to the 100,000+ women of IF:Gathering.
Gather25 was the biggest group project that any of us were a part of! And from these incredible days, Christ followers everywhere were mobilized to reach the world. Learn how you can be a part of this ongoing story at EverybodyEverywhere.com.
This is our story and this is our time. This is all for the glory of God. This is Gather25.

Why Gather25?
There are 5.5 billion people on the planet who do not know Jesus. From our family members, our friends, and our neighbors, to the unreached people around the world. If we are going to change that statistic in our lifetimes, we need to re-awaken the whole Church to the good news of Jesus once again.
Here’s the good news. We believe it is possible.
Why now? This is an unprecedented moment in history where technology can connect to Jesus followers from almost every nation, every denomination, and every generation.
What does this make possible? We can experience what God is doing all over the world unlike ever before. You will not believe the stories of God moving on earth today. They are so remarkable that we will be left feeling compelled to join in the bigger story that God is unfolding in our days. Then together we’ll take simple steps to live out the Great Commission and take the gospel to Everybody Everywhere.
This is what Gather25 is all about.
