We are gathering in Porto in June for our annual Portugal Equip – for a time of equipping, encouraging, strengthening and seeking God.
We are trusting God for revival in Portugal and that’s the theme for this year’s Equip.
Join with us for this time! Let’s cry out to God together for this nation and far beyond, for a wave of the supernatural power of God poured out by the Holy Spirit – to change hearts and minds, to awaken the sleeping church, and to bring true life to the spiritually dead all around us – that the name of Jesus would be proclaimed and glorified!
When
Thursday 29 June – Saturday 1 July 2017
Thursday and Friday – from 6pm till 10pm in the evening with a hour pause for a light meal. (Registration and the coffee bar will be open from 5pm).
Saturday will be from 10am till about 6pm, with coffee breaks and two hours for lunch.
Sunday will be a celebration meeting in the church for all who stay after the Equip, with an opportunity to visit other churches in the area.

The starting point is “Airport” and final station “Forum Maia” with a train change at “Fonte do Cuco”. The journey is around 20 minutes and tickets are available at the airport metro station. The app “Metro Porto” is easy to use too.
Alternatively, you can get a taxi to the hotel, a trip of about ten to fifteen minutes.

We will be providing transport between the hotel and the venue for the sessions.
Porto outing
We will be arranging an outing to Porto with several options available during the day on Friday. We will announce this and coordinate the groups on Thursday at the registration desk.
