Journey Through History—Experience God’s Power Today

Nicaea Summit + Rescued Lampstand Tour

May 22 – June 5, 2025

Join Ed Watts, Jon & Jolene Hamill, Perry & Joy Chickonoski, and Jamie Fitt for a historic pilgrimage marking the 1700th Anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, with visits to Patmos, Turkey, and Israel during Pentecost 2025.

About the journey

This powerful pilgrimage begins on Patmos, Greece—the island where Apostle John received the Book of Revelation. From there, we’ll travel through Turkey, praying in the seven lampstand cities of Revelation and convening a special Nicaea Summit commemorating the 1700th Anniversary of the historic Council of Nicaea.

The tour is centered around a special summit in modern Iznik, ancient Nicaea, near Istanbul Turkey. May 2025 marks the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, convened by Constantine. At Constantine’s direction, a special council was convened with leaders from Europe, Asia Minor, North Africa and the Middle East. They convened to globally affirm the deity of Jesus Christ, which is now the centerpiece of the Christian faith. The Nicaean Creed is the hallmark of their work.

Our journey culminates in Jerusalem during the Feast of Shavuot (Pentecost) 2025, connecting deeply with God’s redemptive timing.

Why this matters now

We stand at a prophetic crossroads, marked by historic moments and divine signals—from Purim to Passover, the Blood Moon signals a watch of freedom. Now, more than ever, God is rescuing His lampstands and redeeming time. This journey will empower you to stand firm, intercede strategically, and connect deeply with God’s purposes in our day.

What people are saying about Lamplighter Ministries

"In this hour, we need watchmen on the walls of our countries who can peer into the future, pray and respond. As we know, history belongs to the intercessors! In order to see, we need light provided by such leaders as Jon and Jolene Hamill. They are aptly called to be Lamplighters, revolutionaries who illuminate what, when and how to pray…"
Cindy Jacobs

“Jon and Jolene Hamill and Lamplighter Ministries are a shining light calling forth societal change while contending for a global awakening of unprecedented magnitude thru the prevailing power of prayer. It has been my honor and joy in this life to partner with the Hamill’s over the past several years. As a father in the global prayer and prophetic community, it is great delight to commend to you the passion for Jesus, the abundance of the fruit and gifts of the Holy Spirit and a walk of integrity that Jon and Jolene exhibit. You will not be disappointed by partnering with Lamplighter Ministries.”
James Goll
God Encounters Network
“My friend Jon Hamill is one of the prophetic voices in this generation sounding a call to “governmental intercession.” But this is not just theory with Jon. He has a wealth of experiences and testimonies of breakthroughs and transformations in cities and regions through this type of prayer… I believe you will be challenged and and encouraged to be a history-maker as you learn to execute His will ‘on earth as it is in heaven.’
Rick Ridings

“Jon and Jolene Hamill have been a turbo charge to the 24-7 prayer movement in Washington DC. Jon’s leadership, mobilizing the prayer coverage that birthed David’s Tent, proved true as a man whose hands have been trained for war and his fingers for battle. Crown & Throne is an upgrade for the operating system of the governmental prayer movement…”
