Romford Elim is a warm, friendly, family church that has been in the area for over 50 years providing spiritual nourishment and valuable facilities to the community. The church officially opened in Wheatsheaf Road in 1957 and has been providing a steady Christian witness ever since.

We are a multi-cultural church enjoying a wonderful mix of many different nationalities living in harmony, having Christ in common. We are a relational church. Church is about real relationship, relationship to God and relationship to one another. Our prayer is that whoever comes in to the fellowship will feel instantly at home and, more importantly, will sense the presence of God.
