Some 3,500 Chinese Christian pastors, leaders and believers from more than 30 countries are expected to gather next March for a global conference that hopes to spark a global revival and strengthen faith communities among the Chinese.

Hosted by Alpha, the Global Chinese Alpha Conference (GCAC) – named REVIVAL 2025 – aims to inspire, equip and empower Chinese Christians worldwide to fulfil the Great Commission, as inspired by 2 Timothy 1:5-6.

It will be held on March 18 and 19 at the Mega Star Arena in Kuala Lumpur.

Participants can expect to immerse themselves in worship, notably led by Streams of Praise Music Ministries, as well as hear from keynote speakers including Pastor Liu Tong from River of Life Christian Church (USA), Rev Dr David Doong, general secretary of the Chinese Coordination Centre of World Evangelisation, and Pastor Lia (Cecilia Chan) from Heart of God (Singapore).

There will also be practical workshops on innovative evangelism tools, how to make your workplace a mission field and how to mobilise the next generation for the Gospel, as well as opportunities for collaborative partnerships. 

The conference will be conducted in Mandarin, accompanied by English interpretations. Tickets are priced at RM200 (S$60).

Speaking to Salt&Light, a representative from Alpha Asia Pacific noted that the Chinese diaspora is the world’s largest ethnic group with 1.5 billion people in various nations, cultures and industries.

“This unique position presents an opportunity for the Chinese Church to act as a bridge for the Gospel, reaching both local and global audiences, from the East to the West,” he said.

“However, to be effective witnesses, believers need to be equipped with practical tools and knowledge that are culturally relevant and biblically grounded.

“Through the GCAC 2025, we hope to join hands with Singaporean believers in strengthening their role as torchbearers of the Gospel, in fulfilling the city-state’s calling as the Antioch of Asia.”
