More Than 750 Christian Leaders Gathering to Commemorate the Birth of the Modern Church

The Wittenberg 2017 Congress, a unique global gathering of more than 750 Christian leaders, will be held Oct. 30-Nov.1, 2017, in conjunction with the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s 95 Theses. Hosted by the Global Church Network, the summit will feature presentations from over 30 cutting-edge Christian speakers.

“This once-in-a-lifetime event will gather leaders from every major Christian denomination to synergize efforts to exponentially grow the size of the Global Church,” said Dr. Leonard Sweet, co-host of the Wittenberg 2017 Congress. “Those who attend will be renewed in their heart for God’s Word, revived in their mind toward the body of Christ and released to go out and complete Finish 2030 in our lifetime.” 

The Wittenberg 2017 Congress will convene at the five-star Maritim Berlin Hotel in Berlin for the first five sessions. On November 1, the summit’s closing session will be held at Castle Church in Wittenberg, the historic place where Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door and where he was later buried.

“It was on Nov. 1, 1517, when people arrived at the church for All Saints’ Day, that the 95 Theses were first read and contemplated by the public,” said Dr. James O. Davis, Founder/President of the Global Church Network and co-host of The Wittenberg 2017 Congress. “It’s fitting that the last day of our Congress will take place at Castle Church on the 500^th anniversary of the first day of the Protestant Reformation.”
