Our name carries three layers of meaning that shape our identity and mission. That is a Home for Journeyers, The Deeper Journey: Biblical Pilgrimage and Finding Rest for the Journey

Join Our Journey. Whether you’re in Braga for a week or a lifetime, whether you’re taking your first steps of faith or have walked with Christ for decades, you’ll find a home among fellow pilgrims here. Together, we follow Jesus, “the founder and perfecter of our faith” (Hebrews 12:2), as we journey toward our eternal home.

For centuries, pilgrims have walked through Braga’s cobbled streets, their footsteps echoing those of countless faithful who sought spiritual renewal on the Camino de Santiago. Today, our church continues this tradition of hospitality, welcoming modern-day pilgrims from every nation. We embrace our role in this historic landscape while serving a contemporary, international community. Our congregation reflects the beautiful diversity of God’s kingdom. We are, Expatriates building new lives in Portugal, International students pursuing their studies, Portuguese locals seeking English-language worship, Refugees and migrants finding community and Travellers pausing their journey to worship.

The Rev. Phillip Dennis serves as the founding pastor of Pilgrim International Church. As an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), he is committed to shepherding God’s people and working to bring a knowledge of the gospel to the people of Braga. Pastor Phillip’s preaching style emphasizes careful exposition of Scripture while drawing practical applications for daily life. He welcomes meeting with congregants and can be reached through our church office for pastoral counseling or conversation.
