About

The Scotland Gathering 2026 will take place in Abbeyhill Baptist Church, 22 Elgin Terrace, Edinburgh, EH7 5PB. We are so excited to gather here in Scotland once again. The 24-7 Prayer Scotland National Gathering is a day of connection, prayer, worship, learning, story-telling food and celebration as we gather from across Scotland. Whether you are new to 24-7 Prayer or you have been around since the beginning, we’d love to invite you to join us. 

Doors open for tea and coffee : 10am 
Day begins :  10:30am
Day finishes :  4:30pm
Lunch is covered in your ticket.

More details will be coming soon as to specific content for the day but you can expect the usual times of worship, hearing stories from across Scotland, praying together, seminars, time to connect with one another and of course eat together. We are unable to provide a childcare facility, but all ages are more than welcome to join us throughout the day.

Our theme this year is to stoke the fire. To reflect and celebrate what we are seeing God do across Scotland while committing to continuing to go and pursue lives built on prayer, mission and justice.

We are selling tickets for the day to help us cover our costs. However, we don’t want this to be a barrier so if you are unable to afford the ticket fee, please just contact us at [email protected]

Or if you are someone for whom this is not a problem and you would like to enable someone else to be at the gathering, maybe consider buying a “Pay It Forward” ticket as well.

If you are coming, we need your help! We need your stories and memories 24-7 Prayer, specifically here in Scotland! Preferably your memories of 24-7 Prayer in your own local context in the form of pictures or maybe you would like to share a poem or a drawing. It just needs to be something we can easily hang up with string and pegs if possible. You may send it to us at [email protected] or bring it with you on the day.

If you have any accessibility requirements please do let us know.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to the 24-7 Prayer Scotland National Gathering 2026.
