March of the Nations 2026

Since 2018, the March of the Nations has been held annually in Jerusalem. It brings together Christians from around the world to show their friendship and support for Israel. The international conference includes prayer, worship, and biblical teachings. A special highlight is the festive gala night, during which Israel and Israeli guests are honored. Afterwards, participants take part in marches and encounter events in cities across the country. There, they meet Holocaust survivors, soldiers, and others affected by October 7, carrying the message of friendship with Israel into society.

At the same time, we are constantly monitoring and evaluating the current situation in close consultation with the local authorities and will adapt the program if necessary.
