Elim takes part in World Fellowship Conference

Elim joined forces with Pentecostal churches around the world at the Pentecostal World Fellowship’s conference in Seoul in October 2023.

Elim National Leadership Team members Michelle Nunn and Paul Hudson represented the movement at the event, while general superintendent Chris Cartwright and Assemblies of God National Leader Glyn Barrett were also elected to the PWF’s advisory board.

Elim’s attendance at the conference followed the movement’s decision to rejoin the organisation last year, in a move which will foster partnership with hundreds of like-minded congregations. The PWF represents 47 countries and supports worldwide 10 partnership, leadership, advocacy, prayer and world mission.

“Elim is already in 100 nations and joining the PWF seemed sensible for unity and partnership,” said Paul Hudson.

“We are recognising our brothers and sisters around the world who share a common bond of belief in the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives.”

“At the conference, we joined 20,000 intercessors to pray at the border between North and South Korea, for example.

“And there is deep concern about persecuted Christians in northern Nigeria, so when the PWF put out a joint statement about t his, we aligned ourselves with them,” he added.
