Marty Davidson

International Missions Director

I love God and feel really privileged to be able to encourage others to be all that they can be through Jesus. As far back as I can remember, I’ve always had an interest and fascination for people, people groups and their stories. I can’t remember what sparked my interested in Missions, but I think God just immersed me in Missions from an early age. I recall a Sunday school teacher telling stories about their adventures in Afghanistan, reading Hudson Taylor’s ordeals in China and Granny Jean and her stories of smuggling bibles behind the iron curtain.

I’ve served short term in the Middle East, Africa and Brazil before leaving dentistry in N.Ireland to serve for 14 years in Maues in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest as Elim Missionaries with the family.

I’m married to Rebeca, a third generation Pastor from the Brazilian state of São Paulo and have two children Daniel and Elizabeth.

Before coming into the role of IMD, I had the wonderful pleasure to serve alongside Rebeca for 8 years as Lead Pastors of the Gateway Elim Church in Yate, whilst most recently serving as Elim’s representative for Central and South America and serving on the Global Advisory Board.

Julie Passmore

Office Manager & PA to International Missions Director

I joined the Elim Missions team in May 2013. In my role I oversee the running of the office, and provide admin support to Iain Hesketh and the Elim Missions staff. I really value the commitment of the Elim Missions staff who provide great administrative support to our missionaries and I also love to connect with our missionaries, who are living and working overseas, seeing their communities transformed by the love of God.

Tim Cobham

Tim Cobham

Senior Missions Assistant

I first became passionate about missions in my late teens when I started leading teams of young people on short-term mission to UK & European churches. On one of these teams to Spain I was impacted incredibly and forever changed.

In 2006 I sold my IT company and as a family we set off for Bible College and then onto Spain as missionaries. I am married to Helen, and have two daughters who are still fluent Spanish speakers as a result of being in a state school over there.

Our return back to the UK was surprising at the time, but God was still leading and my excitement for being involved in mission and supporting missionaries has never waned. Whilst as Associate Pastor at Huddersfield Elim for the last 9 ½ years I have also been a regional mission’s representative and part of the Himalayan Working Group.

I am so thrilled to have my time released to be working with Elim Missions, supporting God’s mission being worked out in so many different places and contexts.

I joined the Elim Missions team in 2022. I first became passionate about Missions work in my early teens after going on several missions’ trips and seeing first-hand the work being done. I have a heart for the service of God and to support those serving Him around the world. After completing my degree in Accounting and Finance, I knew I wanted to use these skills to serve the work being done in the mission field.

Mandy Campbell

Teams and Applications Co-ordinator

I joined the Elim Missions Team in October 2007. In my role as Teams and Applications Co-ordinator I organise short term missions placements for both individuals and church teams. I also process the applications for those who have completed our Missionary Academy and are looking to embark on long term missionary service. I am the project lead for Be Free which is the Elim Missions stand against human exploitation. I promote our Be Free projects in churches and ladies conferences, working alongside the Aspire ladies ministry. My other role here is to co-ordinate our Shop With Integrity project. This involves selling goods made by Be Free Cambodia, and other projects empowering women in the developing world. We sell through our churches and ministries here in the UK. The project has ethical trade at its heart. I am passionate about missions and consider it a privilege to work with such a great team.

Elspeth Davidson

Finance Assistant

I joined the Elim Missions team in Feb 2017 as a part-time Finance Assistant…and I am still here! It is a real privilege to be a part of this team and humbling to see first-hand the generosity of God’s people in supporting the wider church family abroad.

Having grown up on the mission field in a very troubled DR Congo, I know how critical this support is. It is wonderful to have the opportunity to encourage and enable others to serve God where He has called them.

To be able to put my administrative skills to work in supporting such a vital area of ministry is a real privilege.
