Default I'm looking for a good adjective.

'People from many different countries gathered in the church. The mood was very Adjective.'
Is there any good word to fill the 'Adjective'?
'International'?

Oh, I'm sorry that I caused some misunderstanding.
This is not just about church or religion.
'Gathered in the park or concert or event' is also OK.
The most important thing here is that many different countries gathered somewhere with a purpose.
I'd like to know an adjective which describes the mood.

'People from many different countries gathered in the church. The mood was very Adjective.'

It's a bit hard to know. Was the mood: joyful, powerful, dynamic, mind-blowing...?

Default Re: I'm looking for a good adjective.

Is this adjective so important?

Maybe it's better to replace the whole phrase with smth. else, e.g. 'The incredible sense of cohesion was in the air'

Only don't take my example sentence as the right one , it might be incorrect grammatically ot smth. I can smell it

Try to paraphrase it. That's my suggestion.

Good luck!
