Healing Streams Live Healing Services Today: Pastor Chris Opens Final 2026 Edition

Shouts of joy filled venues and living rooms around the world on October 23, 2026, as Pastor Chris Oyakhilome opened the final Healing Streams edition of the year.

Wheelchairs were left empty. Crutches were set aside. And in living rooms, churches and healing centres on every continent, people rose to their feet shouting with joy.

That was the scene on Friday, October 23, 2026, as the 18th edition of the Healing Streams Live Healing Services with Pastor Chris Oyakhilome opened its doors. The three-day programme — running October 23 to 25 — is the final edition of the year, and it has drawn participants from countries around the world.

Led by the President of LoveWorld, Reverend Chris Oyakhilome, the services combine worship, Bible teaching, testimonies and healing ministrations. They are broadcast through Healing Streams TV, LoveWorld Networks and participating television and radio stations worldwide.

Healing Streams October 23 2026: What Happened on Day One?

Day One belonged to the testimonies. From individuals brought before Pastor Chris in the Healing Lines to participants joining remotely from across the world, the opening day was marked by celebrations from people who described healing from various ailments.

Many were seen rising from wheelchairs, abandoning crutches and other mobility aids, and rejoicing over what they described as remarkable changes in their physical conditions. The service unfolded in an atmosphere of faith and expectation, with the healing ministration reaching beyond those physically present.

Participants whose images were projected on giant screens from different nations were prayed for too. For a global audience watching from home, that detail mattered: nobody was too far away to be included.

"Have faith, your change has come!"

That was the declaration from Pastor Deola Phillips, Executive Minister of the Healing School and convener of the event, as she welcomed participants to the October edition. Her words set the tone for Day One — and for the weekend that follows.

Pastor Chris Healing Streams 2026: How Does the Global Service Work?

Each day's programme begins at 2:00 p.m. GMT+1. Registration is free and open worldwide, and Healing Centres have been set up in homes, churches, hospitals and other accessible locations so that people can take part together rather than alone.

Churches, ministry partners and volunteers spent weeks mobilising their communities ahead of the event. The result is a gathering that exists in thousands of places at once — a single service stretched across time zones, languages and living rooms.

The format is deliberately simple: prayer, teaching from God's Word, worship, and testimonies from people who say their lives have changed. Like the worship gatherings filling arenas this year, the emphasis is on participation, not performance.

Healing Streams Testimonies: Why Do People Keep Coming Back?

This is the 18th edition of Healing Streams, and its audience has grown with each one. Organisers describe hundreds of millions of participants across the editions, and the October programme is the last chance in 2026 to join live.

For many participants, the draw is personal. They come with a diagnosis, a family member's illness, or a burden they have carried for years — and they come back because of what they say happened when they first tuned in.

The testimonies themselves follow a pattern familiar to anyone who has watched a healing service: a name called, a story told, a moment of prayer, and then celebration. What keeps people watching, organisers say, is definately not the spectacle but the hope that their own story could be next.

Healing Streams Live Healing Services Schedule: When Are the Remaining Days?

The programme runs for three days, October 23 to 25, 2026, with daily sessions starting at 2:00 p.m. GMT+1. Day One is done; two days remain, and registration stays open throughout.

Viewers can join through Healing Streams TV and LoveWorld Networks, as well as participating television and radio stations. Healing Centres in homes, churches and hospitals continue to welcome anyone who wants to take part in person.

The central message of the opening day was straightforward: faith in God's Word, and the importance of believing and acting on it. For believers who have walked long roads of faith this year, that message lands close to home — and for churches reporting fresh baptisms and new believers, it fits a wider season of public faith.

Two days of the final 2026 edition are still to come, and the organisers are promising more testimonies, more teaching and more moments like the ones that opened the weekend. For the people who left their wheelchairs and crutches behind on Day One, the weekend is already unforgettable — and for everyone still waiting for their own moment, the invitation is still open.

Have faith, the convener said — your change has come. By Sunday evening, when the final edition of 2026 closes, we will know how many more stories of healing and hope this weekend has added to the count — and how many people walked into it carrying a burden and walked out carrying something else entirely.
