Yearly conferences are held in the countries of Brazil, Portugal and Mozambique, gathering together pastors and church leaders ( 1,300 attendees in Brazil, 60 in Portugal, and 200 in Mozambique) for five days of intensive training and spiritual fellowship.

  The conferences serve as a melting pot for national and international speakers and authors, whose collective teachings -- which by themselves have blessed so many lives outside the conference -- are served to edify and encourage those in attendance.

  While the teachings themselves expound the truths advanced in FIEL's literature, they are taught in the context of a forum for similarly-impassioned church leaders to latch arms with one another, reinforcing these battle-weary soldiers for Christ..

  The conferences are a lighthouse to pastors in nations where many churches have obscured sound biblical teaching with the prosperity gospel and pragmatic methods.

  Brazil is in its 24th year of hosting the pastor's conference, Mozambique is in its 9th, and Portugal is in its 8th.

  Running alongside the pastor's conference is FIEL's college age conference. The crux of this conference is to teach sound biblical truths to the next generation of spiritual leaders in the more informal setting of a camp site. Brazil is currently in is 6th year of hosting this conference.   Please join us in prayer for these conferences; that through them the Lord might bring living water, by way of teaching and encouragement, to thirsty pastors, church leaders and college students throughout the Portuguese-speaking nations of the world.

  Bellow are some comments from Pastors who have attended the Fiel Conference:

  "Since FIEL began having conferences in Portugal, my
colleagues and I have been stimulated by this precious help
in our understanding of the Sacred Scriptures."
   —Pastor Rogério Ramos - Portugal

  "You have no idea what the conference meant in our lives. My
family is still in awe…For two weeks, I have been sharing with our
church about the theme of the conferences—the church wept."
   —Pr. Cesar Teixeira - Brazil

  "Our ministry gathered new strength after we came into contact with Fiel literature and conferences. I can convincingly affirm that we now have a new vision of the kingdom of God."
   —Pr. Almir - Brazil  

  "My life was turned around. My heart was cold, but God used the messages to heal me. I became convinced of the truth of the grace of God."
