Up & Coming Events
Greetings Family,
July arrives as a month of reflection and gratitude. Our recent trip to Vanuatu — from Oceania Prayer Connect in Santo to the powerful Pentecost 26 gathering in Port Vila — continues to echo in our hearts. Seeing the islands rise in unity and prayer reminded us that God is moving across Oceania in a profound way. Here in Australia, Pentecost 26 Sydney carried that same spirit of hunger and expectation, marking a significant moment for our nation. As we step into July, we bring a report from the nations and prepare for our AGM, sensing that God is aligning us for the next chapter of this regional story.
Oceania Prayer Connect - Vanuatu Report
We have just come off an incredible intense time of Kingdom Assignments, Missions and Prayer Adventures. It was just after Easter we had a team in the Philippines ministering in the north of Cebu for a Burning Hearts Gathering to then Spend a whole day at the Cebu House of Prayer training 200 youth on prayer to then be a month later in Vanuatu for Oceania Prayer Connect.
2026 is a significant year for Oceania as it marks 420 years since De Quiros came to this region and made the declaration. Vanuatu a group of islands just off the Coast of Australia yet at the Spiritual Epi Centre of Oceania was the place the lord had revealed would be where Oceania Prayer Connect would meet.
On the 17th May a team of 22 made their way from many nations to Vanuatu and converged in Luganville on the Island of Espiritu Santo. We spent our first night in Port Vila before catching a small plane on a 45 minute flight to be welcomed by Pastor Bruno from the Kingdom Embassy.
On the 19th May Oceania Prayer Connect Gathered at Kingdom Embassy and we had close to 100 Leaders gather representing many different prayer networks , houses of prayer from nations including Australia, New Zealand , Samoa , Fiji & Vanuatu. Fiji and Solomon Islands were unable to send representatives.
We had a wonderful team from different churches that led the worship with the island sound , passionate prayer and intercession and waiting on God. We spent the first 2 sessions sharing about IPC , and what is Oceania Prayer Connect followed by the Lunch and then during the afternoon session began to hear reports from the different nations followed by one of the leaders would prayer for that nation after they shared.
We heard powerful testimonies of what God is doing in the nations. And we were able to pray for key issues facing the various nations. There was an incredible sense of Unity and Oneness. And the presence of God.
On the 20th May we had set out to take the group on a 90 minute to 2 hour drive through Jungle and rough roads up the coast and in the middle of Espiritu Santo then eventually we descending to the landing area of Mattentas which is the local name for the landing sight.
On arrival the locals had setup a Marquee for their worship team with a PA System followed by a Table for Communion.
A representative who was directly related to an ancestor who received De Quiros and is Indigenous to the land. Opened in Prayer and gave us a welcome made a formal speech then offered his son to read out a prayer and prophesy they had received from the lord to welcome the team. It was such an honor to be at Mettentas.
After the Speeches as we began to prepare to take communion one of the leaders had sensed that god had asked the local Vanutau intercessors to lead a prayer of repentance on behalf of their nation in response to their government recognizing a palestinian state the politician who led that decision was from Luganville , it was all over some $$ pledged by the Saudi Arabian government to build an airport which was still yet to be built.
Vanuatu was stuck by a Huge earth quake not longer after the government recognising Palestine.
Following the Heart Felt Repentance from Vanuatu then prayer leaders from other nations responded with prophetic prayer and declarations being made. This was a very powerful moment seeing the Holy Spirit lead people followed by Communion and then a sense of Breakthrough where singing and rejoicing took over the place. There was such joy and a sense what was prayer and declared and witnessed at Mettentas would impact the whole of Oceania.
I personally had this moment where it felt like we were standing on Holy Gound and i could look out over the waters to see what i thought was a ray of the Glory of God shining from the heavens over the waters.
A new declaration was presented and read and given to the Local Indigenous Leader and was well received.
Following from the time in Santo as a group we then travelled to join with another large group for Pentecost 26 an Evangelistic Crusade
Hundreds gathered from many nations for a One Day Conference at the Warwick Hotel followed by a One Day Crusade at Freshwater Stadium in attendance was the Prime Minister of Vanuatu.
It was an honor to see how God was bringing together his body , and using Prayer along side evangelism.
In the morning was a Youth Session with Hundreds of Youth responding to a call for prayer they came forward to experience and encounter with God. Followed by the Womans Session then a Mens Session and then the main Session at NIght with Alejandro Arias as the keynote speaker.
On the Day of Pentecost a small team travelled to Pentecost Island to preach the gospel to a group of 1500 people on an island that has never had a Gospel Crusade. It was the first time the Gospel was boldly preached to a large group.
Over the time in Vanuatu 1900 people decided to follow Jesus.
We rejoice with the harvest, We are thankful to the support of IPC Family. Oceania Prayer Connect is being to have shape and form as a prayer council.
A Historic Day of Unity: Pentecost 26 Australia Arise Shakes Greater Sydney
On Saturday, 13th June 2026, history was made as Pentecost 26 Australia Arise gathered thousands for an epic 9-hour encounter. Bringing together believers from across Western Sydney and Blacktown, the atmosphere was charged with expectation. With powerful worship, life-changing messages, and a profound move of the Holy Spirit, it was a day that will be remembered for years to come.
The Vision: Turning the Tide for Australia
The background of Pentecost 26 Australia Arise is deeply rooted in a collective vision to see our nation transformed. The event serves as a strategic catalyst linking directly with the Turning the Tide - Reach Australia initiative. This movement is focused on breaking spiritual complacency, uniting the body of Christ, and mobilizing the church to reach every corner of Australia with the gospel. What we witnessed on June 13th was that very vision coming to life in a tangible, undeniable way.
A Powerful Spirit of Unity and Presence
From the moment the doors opened, those who attended felt a profound spirit of unity that transcended denominational lines. It wasn't just an event; it was a family gathering. Throughout the 9 hours, the tangible presence of God filled the space, bringing a deep peace, joy, and a tremendous spiritual hunger among the people who were desperate for more of God.
This unity was beautifully displayed through a fantastic lineup of worship teams from different local churches who led us into the throne room, followed by our international speakers who preached the gospel with undeniable power.
Miracles, Salvations, and Local Impact
The day was marked by extraordinary testimonies of God's power. Many received physical healing, and hearts were turned to Christ. In one of the most beautiful highlights of the day, a local council worker came to faith in Christ right on the spot!
The impact of the event also resonated deeply with local government:
Blacktown Council: We received a fantastic report following the event, and they are currently considering a fee waiver for the venue.
Liverpool Council: A representative from Liverpool Council attended, was incredibly moved, and has officially invited the event to come to Liverpool in 2027—even indicating potential funding to help make it happen!
From Pentecost 26 to One Sydney at the Opera House
The momentum didn't stop on Saturday. The very next day, Sunday 14th June, the movement flowed directly into the iconic Sydney Opera House for One Sydney. The leaders of One Sydney were present and actively participating at Pentecost 26 Australia Arise, weaving a beautiful thread of continuity between Western Sydney and the heart of the harbor city, proving that the church in Sydney is standing as one.
A Network of Believers
This massive undertaking was made possible through the collaboration of many churches and ministries. Special thanks go to One Church Penrith, One Heart Blacktown, and the NSW Christian Alliance, all of whom were heavily represented and instrumental in uniting the region.
Urgent Financial Appeal: Help Us Close the Gap
While the spiritual breakthrough was priceless, running an event of this scale comes with practical costs. We currently have an urgent financial target of $5,000 left to raise to fully cover our remaining expenses. > We are inviting our community to stand with us in this final stretch. If you were blessed by the event, or if you believe in the vision of Turning the Tide in Australia, please consider making a donation today to help us clear this deficit.
Thank you for your continuous prayers, your presence, and your generosity as we continue to arise and turn the tide for Christ in Australia!
Testimonies from Vanuatu
“I didn’t go to Espiritu Santo in May 2026 expecting a conference. I went because I felt a pull — a quiet, insistent tug from the Holy Spirit — and I soon realised I had stepped into a pilgrimage.
For three days, believers from across Oceania gathered on the island where Pedro Fernandes de Queirós declared the Great South Land of the Holy Spirit 420 years ago. I had read about that moment in history, but standing on the same soil made it feel alive. It felt like the land itself remembered.
From the first morning in Luganville, the atmosphere was thick with worship and unity. Leaders from Australia, New Zealand, Vanuatu, Fiji, Indonesia, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and the U.S. stood side by side — not promoting ministries, not pushing agendas, simply listening for God’s voice together. It felt like family.
One message marked me deeply: “The stones remember.” We were reminded that what one generation remembers, the next can inherit — and what one generation forgets, the next often loses. I realised I was standing on prayers, sacrifices, and faithfulness that began long before I was born.
But the moment that changed me came at Matantas, Big Bay.
We travelled to the place of Queirós’ declaration, and the custodians of the land welcomed us with words that felt like prophecy: “This is the land of covenant, destiny, and divine purpose.” As repentance was prayed over the land — for bloodshed, idolatry, division, and forgotten covenants — I felt something shift. It was as if chains I couldn’t see were breaking.
We shared communion overlooking the ocean, and then the New Proclamation was read aloud — a declaration for Oceania in this generation. It spoke of awakening, unity, healing, and a wave of Glory Fire rising across the Pacific. As the final words were spoken, I felt the weight of destiny settle on us: “So, I have spoken, so shall it be.”
Throughout the week, visions and prophetic impressions flowed — golden trumpets, healing springs, angels breaking chains, youth rising like arrows, ancient vessels opening, and a mirror on the ocean floor reflecting the face of Jesus. Every image carried the same message: God is preparing Oceania for a new season.
I left Vanuatu changed.
Not because of the meetings, but because I witnessed nations becoming family, altars being rebuilt, and a region stepping back into its calling. The journey didn’t end when we flew home. Something was ignited — a fire of prayer, unity, and expectation for what God will do in the Great South Land of the Holy Spirit.
And I know this is only the beginning.
Michael Wells - Australia
I felt so privileged to be part of the Generation Fire team to Vanuatu this year. It was my first ever visit to the Pacific Islands. I loved the island atmosphere, the people, the culture. I especially loved Santos and our visit to Matantas. The significance of that day was overwhelming. The connection to the people, the chief of the islander clan, the history of the place and the spiritual significance of that. The many prayers and decrees from intercessors, the humility and prayers of islanders and their singing and music. The worship in all the other places and churches we visited impressed me for its energy and vitality and from the heart.
Back in Port Villa, the capital, we took part in all that: the Conference, the Rally, the houses of prayer, the Livingwaters church on Pentecost.
I was excited and honoured to be part of Generation Fire ministry team with Donny and Robyn. Their heart and passion and vision is inspiring and I would go again if the opportunity came.”

Up and Coming Events
Blue Mountains Fire Hub
The mountains are rumbling and the embers are rising. On the 4th Saturday of every month, a hungry remnant gathers at 5:30pm in Blackheath Baptist Church to fan the flames of revival and call heaven down over the Blue Mountains. This isn’t a meeting—it’s a fire room, a place where worship shakes the dust off hearts, prayer cracks open the atmosphere, and ordinary believers catch fresh assignment from the Holy Spirit.
If you’re longing for more, come stand in the blaze. The fire is growing, and the mountains are ready to burn bright.
