In our cities

Darkness isn’t waiting for the church to get organized.

It is already working against our families, our children, our schools, our economy and our government. Meanwhile most of us are praying alone, inside our own four walls, next to a hundred other churches doing exactly the same thing — and never once together.

If you have ever thought “someone should do something,” this is that.

✕ I don’t know a single pastor outside my own church.

✕ Our church prays alone.

✕ I want Jesus made known here — I just don’t know where to start.

✕ We agree on Jesus and argue about everything else.

✕ How do I lock arms with churches that aren’t mine?

✕ Nobody’s taking a stand for this county.

01

Our Families

Marriages and homes under pressure with no covering over them.

02

Our Children

A generation being discipled by a phone instead of the church.

03

Our Economy

Livelihoods strained, and few asking God to move over the work of our hands.

04

Our Government

Decisions made over our county with no one standing in the gap.

05

Our Churches

Individualized, siloed, and quietly competing instead of united.

Alone, we whisper

Together, we roar

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

2 Chronicles 7:14 — the promise this whole thing is built on

We’re a gathering of all churches and believers.

“What began as one table in Washington, D.C. is becoming hundreds of tables around the world.”

In October 2025, more than 40,000 believers gathered on the National Mall for Communion America. Fifty-five tents filled with nonstop worship and prayer, ending in a mile-long communion table declaring Jesus over America.

That gathering was never the finish line. It was a staging ground. From September 24–26, Come To The Table is igniting hundreds of simultaneous expressions of nonstop worship, prayer and communion on campuses, in regions, and across nations — and one of them is here, in Catawba County.

Watch — what happened when a nation came to the table

Two minutes. Then decide whether you want it here.

No title, no team, no experience needed

Two ways you can be a part.

You don’t need a title, a team, or a theology degree. Churches, schools, businesses, ball teams and families are all taking hours. Nobody has to register to walk in — telling us just helps us keep the tent full at 4 AM.

For You

Come as one person

Signing up isn’t required — but it’s how we make sure all fifty hours are covered.

1

Pick one hour — or as many as you want

Take a single hour, one each day, or five in a row. 3 AM Friday counts as much as Saturday night, and as many people as want to can take the same hour.

2

Show up at the tent

Under the tent in the First Baptist parking lot — 501 Northwest Blvd, Newton. Walk in. Sit, kneel, sing, or say nothing at all. No ticket, no sign-in table.

3

Watch God heal our land

Leave knowing your county was covered in prayer for fifty straight hours — and you were one of them.

One hour is the whole ask

Tell us when you’re coming — it’s how we cover all fifty.

You do not have to sign up to come. Walk in any hour of the fifty and you belong there. But when you tell us the hour you’re taking, we can see which hours still have nobody in them — and make sure all 50 Hours are filled.

Take one hour. Take five. Take the same hour all three days. There’s no limit on how many people can claim an hour — the more the better.

01

Non-Stop Worship + Prayer

Every voice matters in a region. A new sound is emerging — and it doesn’t stop for fifty hours.

02

John Seventeen Unity

Generational. Racial. Denominational. Every race, every age, every church in our city under the cross of Jesus.

03

Next Generation Engagement

A new Jesus movement is upon us and we are handing the microphone to young voices, not just talking about them.

04

In Public

In tents and open air. Not hidden in a sanctuary — a festival around the presence of Jesus, in the middle of our city.

October 2025 · Washington, D.C.

One table in D.C. Hundreds of tables now.

In October 2025, more than 40,000 believers gathered on the National Mall for Communion America. Fifty-five tents were filled with nonstop worship and prayer, culminating in a mile-long communion table declaring Jesus over America. But that gathering was never meant to be the finish line. It was a staging ground.

Now a generation is rising to carry that sound everywhere. Whether on a college campus, a park, or a city square, every location begins with someone willing to prepare a place for others to encounter Jesus. This isn’t simply an invitation to attend an event — it’s an invitation to host one.

It’s a generation exalting Jesus together, restoring the place of communion, and creating space where the presence of God, the gospel, and unity can be encountered at the same time across campuses, regions and nations.

We’re inviting the nations to Come To The Table. Catawba, we’re inviting you to set it.
