Our Background

Alan has been an ordained Elim minister since 2014 and led Elim Oasis Church in Broadstairs, England, from 2015 until September 2023. The church connected with an Elim Global Partner, the EKNK Pentecostal Churches, in Estonia and travelled there for the first time in 2018 on short term mission. Alan met Alice at a bus stop on this trip to Estonia, with Alice being from one of those local churches. A few months later they began dating and married in 2019. Alice holds a BA in Theology and Alan an MA in Theology from Regents as well as having authored two books on the Kingdom of Heaven (see https://kingdomperspective.net or https://amazon.com/author/alanjosborn).

Our Call & Ministry in Estonia

Since 2018 we have travelled regularly to Estonia but now sense the call to base ourselves there as full time Elim missionaries. The work within the EKNK churches continues and we will be overseeing their 6 church plants and helping to build up EKNK overseas missions.

Over the last couple of years we have also introduced the Freedom in Christ course which Alice translated. We have become the National Leaders for FIC Ministries in Estonia and set up a non-profit Vabadus Kristuses as the vehicle to help churches make healthy disciples that will make the churches stronger and better able to reach out to society more effectively. In October 2023 our first TV show goes on air as we deliver ten episodes on the foundations of living in freedom.

In November 2023 we will be introducing the course into the Village of Hope rehabilitation programme, which is a similar organisation to Teen Challenge in the UK.

So on both fronts we will definitely hit the ground running.

Love and blessings, Alan & Alice
