Portugal is a country with a rich cultural heritage shaped by centuries of history, art and tradition. Known for its music, especially fado, as well as its cuisine and festivals, Portuguese culture reflects a deep sense of community and family. Religion plays a central role in daily life, with Roman Catholicism being the dominant faith, influencing holidays, traditions and values throughout the nation.
In the midst of this culture, Lifeword partners with Marco Gaspar, pastor of a BMA church in Portugal. Through his weekly program, Palavra Viva, Bro. Marco shares the hope of the gospel and reaches people across Portugal with the message of Jesus Christ.

Please join our US Lifeword Staff in praying for the following:
• Pray with us as we research language number 175.
• Pray for the unreached who have yet to hear the gospel in their language.
• Pray for our writers and content creators who faithfully share the gospel in their own contexts, even in some very difficult ones.
• Praise the Lord for the three Nepali men that made professions of faith after our Lifeword speaker in Nepal shared the gospel.
• FOLLOW continues to be a great resource for people interested in learning more about what it means to follow Jesus. But it’s also a great resource for our people to use when they are interested in leading someone through discipleship! We’d love for you to pray for our churches and members who are seeking a discipleship resource to consider adding FOLLOW to their toolbox! Did we mention it’s free? Thanks for your prayers!
