FGB and BMF Nation Leaders meeting together at a Global Leadership Prayer Summit provides the special opportunity to obtain and enlarge global vision to further fulfil the calling given by God through Demos Shakarian, as shown in Demos’s last publication ‘ The Vision Intensified ‘. The annual Summit returned in 2019 to its place of birth from 2012 – 2014 at the Holiday Inn M4J4. Subsequently Summits have been held in Costa Rica, Singapore, Nigeria and the USA.

The 2020 Global Leadership Prayer Summit, to be in Hong Kong in mid February, (Exact dates to be finalised) will be another outstanding occasion within God’s leading – continuing to expand and strengthen vision for reaching the global marketplace in ever changing times.
