On October 2 2022, The Rooftop hosted what we hope was the largest gathering of Christians there has ever been. Many Christians throughout the world came together, in 100+ countries. Gathered not in one place, but with one purpose:
To unite behind the mission of Jesus.

What will happen during The Global Encounter?

[/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title color=”#0066bf” size=”25″ font_weight=”500″ margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]

The Global Encounter will be launched on Sunday 2 October 2022 at 5am British Summer Time from the city of Chelmsford, England. Chelmsford is a few miles to the east of London and the Prime Meridian Line.  It is also the ‘birthplace of radio’, the city from which broadcasting began.

[/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title color=”#0066bf” size=”40″ font_weight=”bold” margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]Global Broadcast[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://therooftop.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/global-encounter-banner2-1920×650-1.jpg” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title color=”#0066bf” size=”25″ font_weight=”500″ margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”none”]We are excited to announce that, in addition to the numerous live encounters that will be taking place across the world on October 2nd, we will also be hosting a live broadcast that will:

    1. Share the amazing stories of what has been happening in the time leading up to the Global Encounter.
    2. Connect with locations across the world and hear live reports of what is happening as Christians are gathering to seek a fresh vision of God’s heart for the lost’
    3. Include teaching from leaders across the world who are joining Jesus in His Mission.

A link will be available here to view all or part of the broadcast.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title color=”#0066bf” size=”20″ font_weight=”500″ margin_top=”20″ margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]

The encounter will be launched from a building that is adjacent to the original factory of Guglielmo Marconi, the man credited as the inventor of radio.

[/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title color=”#0066bf” size=”20″ font_weight=”500″ margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]

The global launch from Chelmsford will set in motion a multitude of local Encounters, large or small, in one location or spread across many, that will take place in cities, towns and villages in numerous countries across the world.  These will begin in Australasia, and, then, following the International Time Zones from east to west, will happen across Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas.

[/mk_fancy_title][mk_fancy_title color=”#0066bf” size=”25″ font_weight=”500″ margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”none” align=”center”]

Each local Encounter will begin at 5pm in the time Zone where the country is situated and last for approximately 2 hours.
