The Pentecostal European Fellowship is a co-operation platform for Pentecostal leaders in Europe.[3] Every year the PEF organizes a leaders’ conference for fellowship, a major city-wide IMPACT outreach and an annual Europe Prayer Sunday.[1]
Pentecostal European Fellowship is one of four main regional church bodies in Europe.[4]
The Pentecostal European Fellowship (PEF) was formed in 1987 during the Pentecostal European Conference (PEC) in Lisbon (Portugal) as a merge of European Pentecostal Fellowship and Pentecostal European Conference. In 2005, the PEF adopted a Constitution and received legal recognition in Belgium as an international non-profit association. In the same year PEF opened its head office in the Brussels area.[1] [5] [6] Every year the PEF organizes a leaders’ conference for fellowship, a major city-wide IMPACT outreach and an annual Europe Prayer Sunday.[1]
The significant growth and expansion of the charmismatic movement has further contributed to a number of national dialogues involving Pentecostal churches throughout Europe.[6]
