Lush green forests drape the rugged mountainsides of Portugal, feeding the thriving logging and cork industries for which the country is known.

PRAYER POINTS
- Pray for traditional religion to be replaced with genuine faith for those in the Roman Catholic Church.

Father,
Revive your children in Portugal. Awaken truth in the Church. Fill them with the desire to spread your Name in all the country. Compel them by your love to serve you and not themselves.
I add my prayers to others that the PEA will boldly plant a church in all 316 counties, that these churches would welcome in the poor, the lost, the rich of this world who are spiritually destitute. May your Name be exalted in the streets of Portugal.
Please bring genuine faith to those who claim to be religious…that they would be known by their love for each other and their care for those around them.
Your will be done in Portugal as in all the world.
