Servant is an outreach ministry of Elim Bible College, devoted to bringing Spirit-led worship and practical service to the local church.
Just as each one has received a gift,
use it to serve others,
as good stewards of the varied grace of God.
1 Peter 4:10
Starting this fall, the Servant student team will be making biweekly trips to visit area churches. The heart of Servant, though, goes beyond just a visit. Our vision is to grow relationship within the body of Christ, connecting your church to Elim by doing real ministry with passion and humility. Worship and service are our activities, but as part of Elim Bible College, our passion is to see people uplifted, blessed, launched into their calling, and set on fire for Jesus.
Our powerhouse student team will:
- Lead worship and minister in the Spirit
- Inspire youth about God’s plan for them and connect them with Elim
- Serve your church with a practical service project or event
