Church building – multipurpose hall

Statement:

We believe Elim Church building is God’s special property and we are just stewards. We believe we have this building to further His kingdom in the southwestern region.
 

History:

  • Elim Church founded in 1992
  • Fudraising for a church building started in 1994
  • Construction started in November 2002
  • Construction finished in May 2006
  • Grand Opening celebrated in August 2006
  • Fundraising still going on in 2008
 
The painful process of 14 years of gathering finances for the church building has been a blessing for our church. The construction and all payments would be impossible without God’s sovereign leading of our church members, other churches and individuals to become partners in our vision.
 

How is the building used to fulfill the vision?

  • More than 1100 visits per week
  • More than 50 000 visits per year
