Elim is a growing movement of Pentecostal churches working in the United Kingdom, Ireland and over 40 nations around the world

As one movement with many churches, Elim is as committed as ever to advance together in mission. We are calling every Elim leader and church to advance into a season of fresh mission, extending their influence, impact and outreach, reaching and serving the local community and beyond.

Our mission focuses on four strategic objectives – growing and planting healthy churches, developing existing and additional leaders, prioritising discipleship and reaching nations.
