Africa-Press – Eswatini. What began in 1996 in a single classroom with just five believers and a God-sized vision has blossomed into a global powerhouse of faith. As Jesus Calls Worship Centre International (JCWCI) approaches its landmark 30th anniversary, the upcoming Gathering of Nations (GON) Conference, running from March 30th to April 5th, 2026, is shifting from a standard church convention into a definitive national “Kairos” moment.
This divine appointment is set to leave a permanent mark on both the spiritual and economic landscape of Eswatini. While the ministry’s three-decade journey is remarkable, the headline of this 2026 gathering is the unprecedented assembly of international “Generals of the Faith” convening in Matsapha.
Leading the spiritual charge is Apostle Michael Orokpo, PhD, President of Encounter Jesus Ministries International (EJMI) in Nigeria. Globally respected for his profound teachings on the Holy Spirit and the “mystery of lifting,” Apostle Orokpo is a commanding voice of revival. His ministry, blazing with revelation and rooted in biblical doctrine, emphasises purity and spiritual discipline, offering a rare and timely visitation for those seeking a deep, life-changing experience.
The conference also welcomes back a “friend of the house,” Bishop Tudor Bismark, founder of Jabula International Ministries in Zimbabwe. An apostolic giant and master of Kingdom Economics with over 50 years in ministry, Bishop Bismark carries a unique mantle for the “Anointing of 1000 Times More.” His presence provides the practical, biblical architecture needed for both personal and national prosperity.
Joining this economic intercession is Apostle Joseph Sithole, fondly known as the “Lion of the North.” Apostle Sithole is a rare voice who seamlessly blends the pursuit of wealth with the heartbeat of God: soul-winning. His focus ensures that as believers prosper, they remain firmly grounded in their spiritual purpose. Adding to the atmosphere of worship, the amazing Lebo Sekgobela will also be there to minister in song.
While the conference officially commences with a special prayer service on Monday, March 30th, led by Apostle Isi Igenegba, the focus intensifies as the week moves toward Saturday, April 4th, for the Official 30-Year Celebration. This day holds deep personal significance for the JCWCI family, yet the doors remain open to the entire public.
Far from being a private anniversary, the session will feature ministry from the invited Generals, ensuring the commemoration is centred on the Word and spiritual encounter. The leadership has made it clear that the history of JCWCI belongs to the people. Whether you have been part of the journey for thirty years or thirty days, you are considered an equal shareholder in this legacy of grace and are warmly invited to join this powerful service.
Perhaps the most staggering detail of this conference is the invitation itself: it is entirely free of charge.
To host a faculty of this international stature—including Apostle Michael Orokpo, Bishop Tudor Bismark, Apostle Joseph Sithole, and Apostle Isi Igenegba—usually requires a global stage and significant registration fees. Yet, JCWCI is opening the doors of the Matsapha auditorium to the entire nation. This gesture is a testament to the ministry’s heart—a desire to see the people of Eswatini catch the fire of revival without any barriers.
At 30 years old, JC continues to prove it is indeed a place you can call home.
