"Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature." (Mark 16:15)
Elim Missions is the ministry that manages the organization and expansion of all Elim clusters, branches and startups. In the year 2000, Presiding Elder Bro Willy Nakar and Keeper of the Vision Sis Luli Nakar shared a new direction for Elim, as inspired by Isaiah 54:2-3:
​
"Enlarge the space for your tent, spread out your tent cloths unsparingly; lengthen your ropes and make firm your stakes. For you shall spread abroad to the right and to the left; Your descendants shall dispossess the nations and shall people the desolate cities."
​
Thus, Elim Missions was born, with Dr Moses and Dondi Catan as Missions Directors. This expansion breathed new life into Elim, making it a missionary community, with missions as a central element in community life. With this thrust, the number of dwellers (members) has increased significantly, not just in one location, but all across the nation and abroad.
Family of Communities
Elim is now a family of local communities across the globe, established to effectively raise up disciples of Christ. These communities are referred to as Elim branches and startups where people from all walks of life and various demographics are held together by a common commitment to community life.
Message from the Elim Missions Directors
Every effort in evangelization is both urgent and extremely valuable. Whether you are on the frontlines of mission directly reaching out to those who need to hear the Gospel, or faithfully serving behind the scenes through prayer, intercession, or generous support, your role matters deeply. Each person who says “yes” becomes an essential part of this life-transforming and history-changing work.
​
At Elim Missions, we invite you to journey with a dedicated team that tirelessly and creatively proclaims the Good News with perseverance, creativity, and love. Together, let us be instruments of God’s grace, helping transform lives through the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
