The Elevation Church, a global church-planting movement with a growing community focused on ministry, leadership, and social impact, has announced its 11th annual Accelerate Conference, themed “Power to Transform”. The conference will be held from Wednesday, 3 June to Sunday, 7 June 2026, at the Pistis Conference Centre, Lagos, Nigeria, alongside multiple experience centres across the world. Hosted by the church’s Global Lead Pastors, Godman Akinlabi and Bola Akinlabi, the conference is expected to attract thousands of participants physically, online, and through global watch parties.
The Accelerate Conference is The Elevation Church’s flagship annual gathering designed to equip individuals with spiritual insight, leadership capacity, and practical wisdom for personal transformation and purposeful living. Over the years, the conference has grown into a globally anticipated platform that brings together influential voices across ministry, leadership, worship, and culture to inspire people towards meaningful impact.
Speaking on the vision behind the conference, Pastor Godman Akinlabi described Accelerate 2026 as “a divine prophetic convergence where people will encounter the power of God in ways that transform every dimension of their lives. We believe this is a defining moment for many individuals, families, leaders, and organisations seeking clarity, renewal, direction, and fresh empowerment for the next phase of their journey.”
This year’s conference is anchored on Metamorphosis, The Elevation Church’s prophetic emphasis for 2026, which represents a season of visible transformation, renewed purpose, and the emergence of a new expression of grace and influence. Through worship, teachings, prayer sessions, and transformative conversations, attendees will be challenged to embrace growth and step boldly into new dimensions of their lives.
The conference will feature globally respected ministers and worship leaders, including Francis Wale Oke, Yemi Davids, Joshua Selman, Jerry Eze, Nathaniel Bassey, Chingtok Ishaku, and Mercy Chinwo, alongside other influential voices from the global Christian community.
One of the unique features of this year’s conference is the introduction of the Accelerate Expectations Card, a prophetic faith tool designed to help participants intentionally document and align their expectations ahead of the conference. Participants are encouraged to download the card via the conference website and prepare prayerfully for the transformation they desire across different areas of their lives.
As part of activities leading up to the conference, believers across the world will participate in the Ignite 72-Hour Prayer Chain from Tuesday, 26 May to Friday, 29 May 2026. This will be followed by Scent of Water, the Pre-Accelerate Worship Experience, scheduled for Sunday, 31 May 2026, at the Pistis Conference Centre, Lagos.
With anticipation already building across faith communities and digital platforms globally, Accelerate Conference 2026 is poised to be one of the most impactful Christian gatherings of the year, creating an atmosphere for spiritual renewal, transformation, and divine encounters.
