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...

Mal, a massive thanks from a baby boomer & a gen-Xer who had the priviledge of being inspired by you at the ALC Leadership Academy. You have really helped make sense of the world that we are seeking to influence...

I want to commend you for the good work you are doing. I'm a 28 year old minister [in Ghana] whom God has called to ... bring together God's people to fight against issues that are killing the youth of today. [My ministry] would like to affiliate itself with your ministry.
