Who Are We?
Ellel Ministries is a non-denominational international Christian ministry that seeks to serve the Body of Christ in two main ways - by offering practical biblical teaching and prayer ministry to those in need of healing and by training and equipping people to become more effective in helping others.
Founded in the North West of England in 1986 by Peter Horrobin, these core principles have never changed, and this dual approach is the hallmark of Ellel Ministries, a ministry that now spans more than 30 countries across the globe.
Ellel Work In Papua New Guinea
The Ellel work in Papua New Guinea initially started in 2011 through Pastor Julian R. Kivori, the then Associate Pastor of Boroko Baptist Church. Couple of annual conferences and One Day monthly events were conducted between 2011 and 2014, however, the work was put on halt due to no fulltime workers.
At the end of December 2021 Pastor Julian R Kivori took heed of the call and stepped out in faith with his family from his role as the Senior Pastor of Boroko Baptist Church and moved into being the first fulltime worker of Ellel Ministries Papua New Guinea.
Scriptural Basis
Founded on the Scriptural principles of Jesus’ model in Luke 9:11 our aim is to:
1. Welcome all people with God’s love and compassion and without judgement or condemnation.
2. Teach biblically based discipleship principles that enable people to be transformed through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and equip them to share the message of hope and healing with others.
3. Heal those who are facing struggles in life; emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually, with a certain knowledge that no person is outside of God’s reach for restoration.
Our Name
Ellel Ministries takes its name from its first building in England, Ellel Grange, which is near the village of Ellel, in Lancashire. In old English, the name Ellel means ‘All hail’ which means ‘All glory to God.’
In Hebrew, Ellel means ‘towards God.’ In Mandarin Chinese, it means ‘love flowing outwards (愛流).
So Ellel could be said to mean ‘All hail, Jesus, All glory to Him’ and be expressed as ‘Love flowing outwards’ into a fallen and broken world, where we are helping people move ‘towards God’. It is all for His glory.
Vision
Ellel Ministries Papua New Guinea Inc. (henceforth Ellel PNG) is a legal entity in PNG and is part of the worldwide Ellel Family. We exist to see transformation in Papua New Guinea communities by resourcing, training, and equipping the Church which is the Body of Christ in the area of healing and deliverance.
Mission
We aim to serve PNG communities in two main ways: (a) by offering practical Biblical teaching and prayer counseling ministry to those in need of healing; and (b) by training and equipping Christians to be more effective in healing others. We do this by welcoming people with God’s love and compassion; teaching them about the Kingdom of God; and facilitating God’s healing to those in need based on Luke 9:11.
Ellel PNG is, therefore, committed to evangelism, healing, deliverance, discipleship and training (Ephesians 4:12, 2 Timothy 2:2).
Basic Beliefs
Ellel PNG holds firmly to the traditional teaching of the Bible with an Evangelical persuasion which forms the foundation upon which we teach and minister.
Basically we believe God is a Trinity. God the Father loves all people. God the Son, Jesus Christ, is Saviour and Healer, Lord and King. God the Holy Spirit indwells Christians and imparts the dynamic power by which they are enabled to continue Christ’s ministry. The Bible is the divinely inspired authority in matters of faith, doctrine and conduct, and is the basis for teaching.
