From every political country one representative will carry the flag of his community and all representatives will build a symbolical cross together.

One purpose of the event is to pray as intercessors for the political communities, the Swiss government and the population. The representatives who carry the flag are encouraged to start a prayer group in their political community if there is has not yet been built any.

The preparations for the big for the big event are being done diligently. Four Evangelical organisations as main coordinators as well as several Christian institutions and individuals work for the gathering. The history of the day of Christ Switzerland started in 1980 and has been realized 5 times so far. The event is an official proclamation of the union of all Christian denominations. In this great gathering the believers rejoice together and proclaim the living Jesus Christ and aim to proclaim Him powerfully to the public.
