Jerry Eze Leads Massive Prayer Gathering at Old Trafford

On September 26, 2026, Nigerian pastor Jerry Eze led thousands of worshippers in prayer at Manchester United's Old Trafford stadium during the NSPPD UK Prayer Conference. Organized by Eze’s Streams of Joy International, the event attracted Christians from various parts of the United Kingdom and beyond for a day of prayer, worship, and fellowship.

Old Trafford, with a capacity of 74,000, was transformed into a venue for Christian worship, contrasting its usual sporting activities. Although attendance was free, participants had to register due to limited capacity, leading to increased interest as social media users sought spare tickets.

Prominent Nigerian gospel ministers, including Sunmisola Agbebi, Mercy Chinwo, Dunsin Oyekan, and Kaestrings, contributed to the worship sessions. The conference took place during a pause in league football for international fixtures, allowing for this large-scale religious gathering.
