Bridging Divides Across Christians for the Flourishing of the City

The Body United 2026: Convergence

This is more than another conference—it is a kingdom convergence.

We want you there at the Table!!

On September 11–12, 2026, believers, pastors, ministry leaders, churches, and followers of Jesus from across New England and beyond will gather in Boston, Massachusetts, at Congregation Lion of Judah, for an extraordinary time of worship, prayer, fellowship, celebration, and kingdom collaboration.

God is doing something remarkable throughout New England. Across cities and communities, we are witnessing fresh expressions of unity, prayer, evangelism, church planting, and revival.

The Body United exists to celebrate what Jesus is doing, hear the testimonies of His faithfulness, bring to the table and reconcile the various streams and expressions in the Body of Christ, discern what He is saying to His Church in this hour, and seek His heart together as we move forward in greater kingdom partnership.

Together we will:

  • Celebrate the work of God throughout our region.
  • Hear powerful testimonies of transformation.
  • Worship and pray as one Body.
  • Feast and fellowship across churches and generations.
  • Build meaningful relationships with leaders and believers from every stream.
  • Seek and discern fresh insight and direction for advancing God’s Kingdom together.
  • And more.

This gathering also launches the annual 10 Days of Prayer, positioning us to begin this sacred season in unity before the Lord.

Now we need your help.

REGISTER TODAY @ www.thebodyunited.net

The time is now.

Let’s gather.
Let’s celebrate.
Let’s seek the Lord together.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Boston!

See you September 11–12!

“That They May Be One” Film Release

In theaters May 19th and 20th only!

“That They May Be One” – A Docudrama on Unity in Christ
On the night before His crucifixion, Jesus prayed a prayer that still echoes across the Church today: “That they may all be one.” (John 17)

Featuring Francis Chan and Christian leaders from across denominations, That They May Be One is a powerful docudrama exploring how the Holy Spirit has been quietly working across generations to answer that prayer.

The film uncovers a remarkable story of God’s providence unfolding for more than a century. From the urgent prayers of St. Elena Guerra, which inspired Pope Leo XIII to consecrate the twentieth century to the Holy Spirit, to the dramatic outpouring of the Spirit in Topeka, the historic revival at Azusa Street, and the surprising awakening among Catholics at Duquesne University in 1967, a powerful thread emerges.

Through compelling testimony, historical insight, and dramatic reenactments of Pentecost and Jesus’ prayer in John 17, the film reveals the Holy Spirit’s work across denominational lines – calling the Church to renewal, awakening, and unity.

That They May Be One is more than a documentary – it’s an invitation to rediscover the Spirit who is still moving today.

Churches Praying Together

Join us for Churches Praying Together – an important prayer gathering on Saturday, February 21, at 7:00pm at the Symphony Church Office.

The meeting is organized by a group of pastors who pray together regularly via Zoom and every couple of months in person – and  is led by Barry Kang, Pastor of Symphony Church.

The goal of the meeting is to unite God’s people in prayer for a spiritual awakening in Greater Boston.  We all agree on the need for an awakening.  Almost all spiritual awakenings in the past have started in earnest prayer by God’s people.  Thus this is your chance to participate in such a gathering, and to invite those you know who have such a burden to join in too.

There is a small attached lot with limited parking in the evening (Back Bay Mental Health). The best place to find street parking is on Babcock Street (metered parking on the Boston side is free after 8pm, and the Brookline side has free 2 hour parking). There is also paid parking under New Balance field in the Langsam Garage – $14.

We believe these gatherings honor our Lord Jesus as we unite in Him as He prayed in John 17. Hope you can join us!

Reconciling Love

Today, we have Megan Lietz as a guest blogger with UniteBoston. Megan is a research associate at the Emmanuel Gospel Center and is passionate about unity in the body of Christ. Today, she shares with us about some insights into the reconciling love of Christ that destroys barriers between God’s people.

 

In Ancient Near Eastern Jewish culture, it was believed that salvation was only for Jews or those who conformed to the legal requirements of Judaism. Gentiles were generally seen as lost and distinct from Jews in belief and culture. However, Jesus had a heart for both Jew and Gentile. He desired and made a way for them to be one in Him. For example, Jesus’ high priestly prayer in John 17 pleads for unity among his followers and Ephesians 2:13-18 explains how Jesus’ work on the cross tore down the dividing wall between Jew and Gentile. Despite the barriers that his followers erected between themselves and believers different from them, Jesus calls them to unite themselves with those who were seen as “the other.” This was viewed as inappropriate by the leading Jews. Eventually, the acceptance of the Gentiles became the belief that set early Christianity apart from other sects of Judaism.

 

Within the church today, there are many divisions. It’s easy for us to judge those from different cultural or Christian traditions. Instead of embracing people as brothers and sisters, we can label them as “the other” and practically exclude them from our interactions within the body of Christ. This behavior is in stark contract to what Jesus did, sacrificing his own body, so we could be one and experience the fruits of unity.

 

Today, let us pray that we and the ministries throughout our region will become mindful of the ways in which we separate ourselves from our fellow believers and, in doing so, disrespect the reconciling work that Jesus did on the cross. Let us pray that we see our brothers and sisters as Jesus does, covered by his blood and part of his family. May we act in unity because what divides us has been overcome by Jesus’ work on the cross.
