The 15th annual International Gathering of Champions (ICOG) conference wrapped up yesterday with a Praise Celebration night at Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) in Hackney, London.

Worship was led by the KICC choir, gospel favourite Judy Jacobs and American gospel singer Martha Munizzi, amongst many more.

Thousands danced and shouted out as they celebrated the presence of God at the 12,000 seat-capacity tent, located at KICC’s headquarters in Waterden Road.
This year’s theme was ‘Kingdom, Power and Glory’, as congregants focused on the ‘dominion authority of believers'.

Held from 20 to 27 August, the conference is now establishing a reputation within the Christian community — both in the UK and globally — as thousands of people from around the world attended the event.

During the week, the conference brought together some of the most influential leaders, such as KICC’s very own Senior Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo, Dr Dipo Oluyomi and Bishop John Francis from the UK; Bishop Eddie Long, Dr Mike Murdock, Pastor Robb Thompson, Pastor Jamal Bryant and Marcus Lamb from the USA; and Pastor David Oyedepo and Bishop Tudor Bismark from Africa.

In addition to Martha Munizzi, gospel recording artist Israel Houghton from the U.S. attended the conference to lead worship.

Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo has commented on the event saying:

"The International Gathering of Champions will challenge every believer to rise up to a new level and declare victory in every area of life where there has been defeat. The believer’s heritage contains the promises of God and we aim to make sure every born again believer knows who they are in Christ and the privileges that they have in Jesus."
