About us
Darlington Elim Pentecostal Church is one of a growing movement of more than 550 Elim Churches across the UK and Ireland.
​
Our aim is simply to be a church...
​
which, of course, sends us back to the Bible to be reminded of what that might look like...
​
and to realise again that what matters most is not our ideas, plans or programmes but the amazing reality that we're all known and loved by God.

My name is Richard, I'm married to Deb and have two grown-up daughters. I enjoy reading, walking our black Lab and supporting Manchester United. I love living in Darlington but if I'm not here, I'll be up in the Western Isles, connecting with my roots.

I'm Sally, I'm the Mother Hen - wise and caring (or so I'm told!) I'm also a Rockstar (no, not because of my hair) but I regularly rock out in the Ukulele supergroup.
