2,000 Young People Encounter God at All-Night Prayer Gathering
Signs of a spiritual shift are becoming more evident in the United Kingdom as young people flock to churches in search of healing, freedom and deliverance. In the latest evidence that the tide is turning, more than 2,000 young people gathered to seek God in an all-night prayer and worship event.
As CBN News has been reporting recently, the U.K. was a difficult place to share the Gospel for decades, but that has been changing due to what some are calling a “Quiet Revival.”

“In the last 6 years, the Brits have seen identifying as a Christian and church attendance amongst 18-24 year-olds increase from 4% to 16% and amongst 25-34 year-olds from 4% to 13%!! This a part of what is being called ‘The Quiet Revival’ in the U.K,” explained Dave Ferguson, lead pastor of Community church, in a post on Instagram.
Al Gordon, pastor of Saint Church, has been a part of leading a bimonthly prayer gathering in Britain that is at the forefront of this “spiritual awakening.”
Just last weekend, more than 2,000 young adults packed out Saint Church’s Hackney location for the all-night prayer and worship event that was marked by worship, salvations, and “deep repentance.”
Gordon wrote about the remarkable night on Instagram, describing, “Extraordinary scenes: a thick and heavy sense of God’s presence, dozens giving their lives to Christ, healing, freedom. I want to encourage those of you who were there to journal, record, and continue to pray without ceasing.”
The event, which was a collaboration between Saint Church, King’s Cross Church, and Imprint Church, ran from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m., the outlet reports.
Gordon shared that there were stories of healing, deliverance, salvation and spontaneous worship, and the presence of God was so thick that more than 500 people stayed beyond the event in a scene reminiscent of the early moments of the 2023 Asbury revival, saying “it could have gone on longer.”
