The Elim Pentecostal Movement
George Jeffreys founded Elim in 1915, in Monaghan, Ireland, and since then the Movement has grown to around 660 churches in the UK and Ireland, and almost 10,000 worldwide.
Elim?
During the journey from their cruel bondage in Egypt to the freedom of the Promised Land, the Israelites, exhausted and dispirited came upon an oasis called Elim in the Bible.
Exodus 15:27 says: Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped there near the water. It would have been a place of shelter and refreshment in the wilderness.
Life can sometimes seem like a wilderness, we hope our church can be an oasis on your journey.
Pentecostal?
The name comes from the account in the Bible in Acts 2 when the apostles were visited by the Holy Spirit during the feast of Pentecost.
We believe the power and presence of God is as real and relevant today as it was in Biblical times. God has not changed. We believe that God longs to transform lives, heal bodies, and give new direction.
