Pastors in Lisbon Pursue 2020
Lisbon, Portugal is full of history.
But beneath the dust of time, there lies a pioneer heart.
This nation produced some of the world's greatest explorers. Today, there is a hunger to recapture that forward-looking and courageous pioneer drive, not least among many Christian leaders.
The church in Portugal has not been known for producing innovative, culture-engaging Christian churches, but that may all be about the change, as Mal Fletcher discovered on a recent visit.
Invited to speak at a conference of church leaders from across the city, Mal found a group totally sold on the idea of moving quickly into a future-mindset and engaging the city at the point of its greatest needs.
Lecturing on 'The Church of 2020', Mal dealt with many of the obstacles that prevent institutional organisations from embracing change - and influence.
The sessions were so well received, that the Fraternal have invited Mal to continue the sessions next year.
Expect to see some change in churches in Portugal...

I was much blessed to hear Mal in the Portuguese Conference in January. My expectations for life were lifted up! Thank you for the good work you've done in our Church!

Mal Fletcher, I would just like to take this opportunity to say thankyou for the inspiration you are. I was at Rock Nations and found your ministry incredibly refreshing especially when you spoke on Celebrity and what happens when that creeps into the church.

I've never seen a program that has challenged me as much as EDGES. My thinking has changed, it has encouraged me to grow and given me a deeper knowledge and understanding.
