We thank you for your prayers and support. The conference was planned for 5,000 pastors and church leaders; by the final day about 20,000 people were in attendance.
Three days in March
The Acts 25 Pastors and Leaders Conference ran from March 18 to 20, 2025: three days of teaching, worship and prayer.
It was first planned for November 2024, and was postponed when permission to gather could not be obtained near state elections.
What was taught
Speakers taught on the rights Christians have to gather under the Indian constitution, on church unity as persecution increases, and on how to calm and respond to violent crowds. Lawyers answered questions from church leaders facing hardship.

Worship, prayer and fellowship ran throughout, and many leaders formed lasting connections with one another.
More people than anyone planned for
Believers from nearby villages opened their homes when hotels filled.
On the final evening the gospel was shared with everyone present, and more than 1,000 people gave their lives to the Lord.
What followed
After the conference, one group of attendees formed a persecution support network covering 432 local churches. In mid-2025, many of the pastors who stood together publicly against threats toward Christian leaders had attended Acts 25.
