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.

Family is very important to us particularly in this day and age when the family unit has taken such a battering. The family is God ordained beginning with marriage, where a man and woman come together providing a committed, loving environment to raise children to honour God and their fellow man, equipping them to live a positive God-fearing life.

We are a multi-cultural church enjoying a wonderful mix of many different nationalities living in harmony, having Christ in common.

The Bible is central to our teaching programme as we believe it to be the inspired Word of God to be used in instructing, correcting, directing and training in life. Our worship is vibrant, joyful and sincere because God our Creator and Saviour is truly worthy of our praise.

We are a serving church, here to serve God and each other by whatever means possible. Our desire is to leave a legacy, to establish something lasting for our children and neighbourhood so that in the years to come there will still be a witness in the community letting them know that God is alive and loves them with an everlasting love. We desire to equip people to live a life that is pleasing to God.

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.
