Festival organizers said, "Our vision is to have this generation praying and worshipping God, and to be filled with the Holy Spirit to be able to change the world."

Said SAT-7's Director, Farid Samir, "In a conference like this, we saw kids worshipping and praying from their pure hearts, hearing God's voice and sharing it. Some kids told their testimonies of special encounters with the Lord."

According to the report, the location of the festival has long been an historic center for Christian prayer.
