European Congress on Evangelism Opens in Berlin with a Call for Bold Gospel Proclamation

(Worthy Insights) – The atmosphere inside the JW Marriott auditorium was electric as the opening day of the European Congress on Evangelism commenced. Set against the impressive backdrop of a 25-meter-wide stage, award-winning concert pianist Huntley Brown filled the space with a blend of classic hymns and contemporary worship songs, culminating in the powerful refrain of “Goodness of God.” A single, illuminated cross dominated the stage, establishing an ambience of reverence and expectancy.

With over 1,000 pastors and Christian leaders from 55 countries and territories—from the UK to Ukraine, Spain to Sweden—this congress marks a significant moment for the Church in Europe, taking place nearly 60 years after Billy Graham’s inaugural World Congress on Evangelism in 1966.

The opening session featured a moving flag ceremony, with stewards parading the flags of the 57 recognized countries of Europe, which were then placed along the upper mezzanine of the auditorium. [ Source (Read More…) ]
