Global Gathering 19 – January 12-15, 2017 – New Delhi, India
 
God Breaks Down Walls to Build Bridges 
Ephesians 2:20-21
 
 
 
 
YOUR HELP NEEDED TO TEAR DOWN WALLS
The theme of our Global Gathering in India is “God Tears Down Walls To Build Bridges.” It will be a blessed experience of joyous fellowship, worship, and teaching. How can you help?
 
First, pray for the Gathering. For financial support. For safe travel. For the Holy Spirit to bring life to all who speak, who listen, and who praise.
 
Second, come to the Gathering! There is still plenty of time to make your plans to attend. For a step-by-step guide on how to attend, see the article below.
 
Third, if you cannot attend, send a donated registration.  That is, pay the registration fee that will go directly to the expenses for the Gathering.
 
Four, you can give a generous donation of any amount designated for the expenses of the Gathering.
 
 A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR ATTENDING THE NEW DELHI GATHERING
 
It is time to finalize your plans to attend our Gathering in New Delhi. There you will experience the blessings of worship, learning, fellowship, and service together.
 
STEP ONE: Register for the Gathering on our website. Make sure you hit the Register Now button after you fill out the form. Then pay your Registration fee. http://www.globalgathering2017.com/registrationform.html
 
STEP TWO: Book your flights. You may want to look at international websites to compare fares: http://www.expedia.com/ or http://www.vayama.com/ among others. You might find cheaper flights if you wait to book six months or so before the Global Gathering.
 
STEP THREE: Book your hotel. Look on the website of the Gathering http://www.globalgathering2017.com/travel.html for the list of hotels. Choose your hotel. Note that the links go to the hotel’s website and that you might get a better rate by looking at http://www.trivago.com/ You might find cheaper room rates if you wait to book six months or so before the Global Gathering.
 
STEP FOUR: Apply for your Indian visa (you should already have a Passport). First look on the chart here https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/tvoa.html to see if you can apply for a tourist e-TouristVisa (eTV).
This is the easiest way to get a visa. Or you can go through your local Indian Consulate. You will need to book your flight before applying online.
 
STEP FIVE: Look at the program: http://www.globalgathering2017.com/event.html and http://www.globalgathering2017.com/speakers.html Anticipate the blessing God will provide as we meet with brothers and sisters throughout the world.
 
STEP SIX: Pray for traveling mercies, leaders and speakers on the program, the church in India, the church in your own country, the church throughout the world, and the world God loved enough to send his Son to bless.
 
IF YOU CANNOT COME TO NEW DELHI, START AT STEP SIX. Do continue to pray for the ministry of World Convention.

Dear global sisters,
 
It has been nearly four years since we have had the opportunity to be together at a World Convention Global Gathering. We have been praying and planning for this time, and are anxious to meet with you, to worship with you and together discover God’s ever-lasting designs.
 
A special program is offered especially for women attending the 19th Global Gathering. We hope you will include Global Women Connecting events in your New Delhi experience!
