Massive Gathering Marks Arunachal Revival & Healing Festival 2026 in Hollongi

HOLLONGI, ARUNACHAL PRADESH – Thousands of Christian believers from across the Northeast gathered at Hollongi, Papum Pare district, for the Arunachal Revival & Healing Festival 2026, which concluded on March 13, 2026. The four-day spiritual event, which began on March 10, served as a major platform for collective prayer, worship, and reported “miraculous” healings.

Spiritual Leadership and Program Highlights

The festival was headlined by Apostle Ankit Sajwan and Pastor Monika Sajwan of Ankit Sajwan Ministries (ASM). Organisers from the Arunachal Revival & Healing Festival team stated that the event aimed to foster spiritual revival and unity among believers, following similar successful gatherings in Nagaland and Shillong.
Each day, gates opened at 1:00 PM for a “Praise Fiesta,” followed by the main service starting at 5:00 PM. Attendees reported powerful testimonies, including claims of a man bedridden for seven years regaining the ability to walk and others experiencing restoration of sight and hearing.

Massive Turnout and Logistics

While official numbers vary, local reports described a “massive gathering” that grew daily, with crowds estimated in the thousands to lakhs.

To accommodate the scale of the event:

Transport: Organisers provided free transportation from nearby hubs like Itanagar, Naharlagun, and Nirjuli.
Accommodations: Affordable lodging and dedicated parking spaces were arranged at the venue to support visitors traveling from outside the district.

A Growing Spiritual Movement

The festival is part of a broader wave of religious events in the state, closely following a three-day Healing & Revival Crusade 2026 hosted by the Arunachal Pradesh Christian Revival Church Council (APCRCC) .

Despite the large-scale participation, these programs have previously faced scrutiny. Legal bodies like the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) have raised concerns regarding “magical healing” claims involving children, and some local critics have expressed caution against “blind faith” exploitation. In contrast, the Arunachal Christian Forum (ACF) has defended such crusades, stating they focus on mental healing and combating social issues like drug addiction.
