IF:One Night
Friday, February 27, 2026
For over a decade, IF:Gathering has been about one thing—women gathering to know God and make Him known.

In 2026, we’re coming together for IF:One Night: one powerful evening of worship, teaching, and prayer, live from Dallas and streaming for free everywhere.
IF:One Night is a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate what we’re part of: a global family of women who believe God is moving in powerful ways.

It’s a night to worship together, hear life-changing teaching, and be reminded that we are not alone.

We can’t wait to see how God meets us again on February 27, 2026—in ways that inspire, challenge, and encourage us to live fully in His purpose.

For more information, check out “Bemidji Covenant Women” on Facebook. Or call Katrina (218)590-3317
