Transform Your Life Through Authentic Faith and Community



Ashingdon Elim Church & Rayleigh Elim Church - Where Faith Meets Real Life
Do you ever feel like something is missing - even when life looks "successful" on the outside? Career, relationships, and possessions can't fill the deep spiritual hunger in your soul. That emptiness isn't a flaw in you - it's a longing for the God who created you.

At Ashingdon Elim & Rayleigh Elim, you'll find more than just a church service. You'll discover:

  • A Living Faith - Connect with the God who loves you, heals wounds, restores hope, and gives lasting peace.
  • A Welcoming Family - Be part of a diverse, caring community that celebrates victories, shares burdens, and walks life's journey together.
  • Relevant Teaching - Hear God's timeless Word applied to the real challenges of 21st-century life.
  • Your Purpose in Christ - Discover and develop the gifts God has placed in you to make a difference in His kingdom.
  • Flexible Ways to Connect - Whether in-person or online, experience God's presence and people wherever you are.
We believe Jesus still transforms lives today - and He can transform yours. As the Bible says: "For this is how God loved the world: He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 (NLT) Your journey towards peace, joy, and purpose starts with one step. Join us this Sunday at Rayleigh Elim - in person or online - and discover the life you were created to live.

Don't let another day pass feeling empty, disconnected, or purposeless. Your transformation begins with one simple step. Visit us this Sunday for an in-person service where you'll experience firsthand the warmth of our community and the power of God's presence, or connect immediately through our online platform to start your journey today. Whether you're taking your first tentative steps toward faith or seeking to reignite your spiritual passion, we're here to welcome, support, and journey with you. Your new life of purpose, community, and spiritual fulfillment is just one decision away.

East Gateway Hub

The East Gateway Hub is made up of Ashingdon Elim, Barking Elim, Dagenham Elim, East Ham Elim, Pitsea Elim and Rayleigh Elim.

Stronger Together

In 2020, the leaders of three East London Elim churches (Barking, East Ham and Dagenham) began supporting one another through the challenges of leading a church through a pandemic. Pitsea Elim Church joined in 2023 and then Ashingdon Elim and Rayleigh Elim in 2024. This partnership in the Gospel is known as The East Gateway Hub.

God is continuing to lead the leadership and congregations of the 'Hub' in forming connections in prayer, ministry and vision that builds His Kingdom in the UK, from the east, along the Thames gateway, into London.
