Millport, Scotland, was the beginning of a profitable summer of ministry for five Elim students and two Elim grads. Along with young people from the U.S., Britain, and Europe, they joined YOUTH WITH A MISSION in early July at the College of the Holy Spirit, YWAM headquarters for Scotland. The summer began with a week of teaching and fellowship as di¬ rector David Brett shared the vision and plans for the summer program. From Millport, teams were sent throughout Scotland joining with various churches in a combined effort of inten¬ sive evangelism. The team members shared the gospel from door-to-door, in coffee houses, church services, street and beach meetings and side-walk witnessing.

Composed of churches, ministers and mission¬ aries ELIM FELLOWSHIP was formed to provide Elim gradu¬ ates with official representation before governments, with a much-needed sense of “family” or belong¬ ing, and with a source of spiritual refreshing and guidance. In fulfillment of these functions its mem¬ ber council screens missionary candidates and ap¬ plicants for ministerial credentials, consider new churches desiring identificaton, and assumes the over-all spiritual responsibility for E.F. at home and abroad. Presently 263 ministers and missionaries are identified with E.F., seventy of which pastor co¬ operating churches in the U.S. Ranging farther afield, Foreign Missions Secretary Costa Deir trav¬ els worldwide, encouraging and counselling E.F. missionaries and scouting out new areas. And, back home, Hayden Bennett’s well-trained E.F. office staff provides financial and business services for E.F. missionaries on the field. Elim Fellowship functions through a group of dedicated workers whose ministry is not at all glamorous, but deeply needed and appreciated by the ministers and missionaries they serve.
