Join Us for ReFocus '26: Experience Global Worship at R1D!

What if we told you that on one single Saturday morning, believers from more than 20 countries would wake up early, stay up late, and gather virtually to worship our awesome God together? What if we said that churches from four different continents would unite for one purpose – to grow deeper in His Word and experience authentic, life-changing worship?

That’s exactly what ReFocus One-Day is all about, and we’re thrilled to invite you to be part of something truly extraordinary happening on Saturday, February 28th.

ReFocus ’26 represents more than an event – it’s an invitation to be part of a global community that’s passionate about authentic worship and spiritual growth. Whether you join as an individual, bring your family, or gather with your entire church community, you’ll be contributing to something that has eternal significance.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, February 28th, 2026, 8:00am-12:00noon Central USA Time and 4:00pm-8:00pm Central Africa Time, and start planning how you want to participate. The beauty of ReFocus is that however you choose to participate, you’ll be part of a global choir of praise that spans continents, cultures, and time zones.

What Makes ReFocus One-Day So Special?

ReFocus One-Day (R1D) isn’t just another virtual event – it’s a global movement of worship that brings the body of Christ together in ways we’ve never experienced before. Presented by NLW International, this live, interactive virtual gathering creates a space where geographical boundaries disappear and hearts unite in praise.

As we reflect on our previous ReFocus events, we’re amazed by what God has done. This past year marked a milestone in our NLWI history as people from more than 20 different countries across four continents joined us for an unforgettable day of worship. From the early morning risers in the United States to those staying up late in Pakistan, believers everywhere came together at the same time for what can only be described as a giant virtual party for worship!

The Power of “One Day”

One of the most unique highlights of ReFocus is that everything happens in one day. Instead of spreading the experience across several days like traditional conferences, we’ve discovered something beautiful about bringing everyone together simultaneously. There’s something powerful about knowing that while you’re lifting your voice in praise in Chicago, someone in Kenya is doing the same thing at that exact moment. While you’re diving into God’s Word in Texas, a believer in the Philippines is receiving the same truth.

This synchronous worship experience creates an undeniable sense of unity that transcends time zones and cultural differences. Yes, it means some folks are waking up super early while others are staying up late, but the shared sacrifice makes the experience even more meaningful. We’re not just participating in an event – we’re joining a global choir that spans continents and cultures.

Rich Content That Transforms Hearts

During our ReFocus events, we gather some of the most passionate worship leaders and teachers to share insights that will revolutionize your understanding of worship. Our speakers address topics like:

• How worship carries us through life’s most challenging seasons
• What it truly means to have a heart of worship
• Discovering worship beyond the Sunday morning experience
• Building authentic community through praise
• Leading others into meaningful encounters with God

What’s remarkable is how each speaker brings their own unique perspective while contributing to a cohesive, powerful message. The diversity of voices – representing different backgrounds, experiences, and ministry contexts – creates a rich tapestry of teaching that speaks to every heart in attendance.

Everything is broadcast live, which means you’re not watching pre-recorded content. You’re experiencing real-time worship, teaching, and interaction. The music happens live, the messages are delivered live, and the community engagement unfolds in real-time. This creates an electric atmosphere where you can sense the presence of God moving across the globe.

Breaking Down Barriers

One of the things we’re most proud of is how ReFocus makes worship accessible to everyone. We provide translations when and where we can for those who don’t speak English as their primary language, ensuring that language barriers don’t prevent anyone from fully participating in this global gathering.

We’ve watched people from different cultures, denominations, and worship styles come together with one common purpose: to honor and glorify God. The beauty of seeing someone worship in Spanish while another lifts their hands in Swahili, all joined by the same Spirit, is something that has to be experienced to be fully understood.

Churches Coming Together

Some of our most exciting success stories come from churches that have decided to participate together. Instead of individuals joining from their homes, entire congregations gather in their sanctuaries to be part of the global ReFocus experience. These churches often bring their own musicians and worship teams, creating localized worship moments while staying connected to the broader global community.

We’ve seen churches invite neighboring congregations to join them, creating regional hubs of worship that connect to the worldwide event. Some have set up their own bands, customized their local programming, and created a sense of ownership and community engagement that extends far beyond the four hours of the main event.

This approach allows each participating church to maintain their unique worship style and personality while being part of something much larger. It’s beautiful to see how local churches can personalize the experience while contributing to a global movement of praise.

More Than Spectators – You’re Part of the Movement

We’re committed to ensuring that ReFocus participants feel like integral contributors to a global movement of worship, not mere spectators. Through interactive elements, real-time engagement opportunities, and community participation features, you’ll be actively involved throughout the entire experience.

Our vision for the future includes even more interactive elements that allow participants to engage directly with speakers, share prayer requests with the global community, and participate in worship experiences that span continents. We’re harnessing the power of technology to transcend physical barriers and create authentic spiritual connection.

Looking Forward: Your Church’s Role in ReFocus ’26

As we look toward ReFocus ’26, we’re dreaming big about what God wants to do through this gathering. We’re specifically encouraging churches to consider hosting their own ReFocus gatherings – bringing together multiple congregations in your area to participate as a regional hub.

Imagine your church partnering with other local congregations, setting up your worship team, and creating a customized experience that reflects your community’s heart while connecting to believers worldwide. This approach fosters ownership, builds local relationships, and creates ripple effects that extend far beyond February 28th.

We’re also working to develop new ways for participants to contribute their own worship expressions to the global gathering. Whether through submitted video testimonies, regional worship contributions, or real-time prayer partnerships, ReFocus ’26 will provide multiple avenues for meaningful participation.

The Transformative Power of Global Worship

When believers from different nations, cultures, and backgrounds unite in worship, something supernatural happens. Barriers break down, hearts are transformed, and we catch a glimpse of what worship will look like around the throne of God. Revelation 7:9 paints this picture: “After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.”

ReFocus One-Day offers a foretaste of that eternal reality. It’s a chance to experience worship that transcends human divisions and unites us in our common love for Christ.
