elim

Elim Center International HQ leaders will visit the Elim chapter in Riverside, California in the following week to hold various meetings with the west coast Elim staff from San Francisco and Riverside and also with the general WOA membership in that city. 

The HQ leadership will arrive in Riverside on Monday, May 19, and from the next day will lead the West Coast Staff Conference, which is purposed to give the west coast staff to discuss and decide together with the HQ leadership on the direction of their ministries for the second half of the year.

The conference schedule will include discussions, chapters' presentations, lectures, and prayer meetings. 

In addition, using the evening times and weekend during their stay, Elim leaders from HQ will lead various prayer meetings together with all the powerful Elim west coast staff for other WOA ministries and members located in Riverside.  

These activities will be designed to empower the spiritual strength and unity of the participating ministries and members. The whole event will end on Saturday, May 24 with a prayer meeting with the staff of Olivet University, which will provide the venue for the event. 

Every year, Elim Center U.S. holds an annual west coast event at one of the Elim west coast chapters in order to have in-depth staff meetings with all the west coast staff and also share grace with WOA members in this region through various powerful prayer meetings and related activities.

Last year, the west coast event lasted for three days from April 1, brining a lot of spiritual blessings to the Elim staff and other participating WOA members.  All of the participating Elim staff have great expectation of this year's gathering and are currently making preparations for it. Please pray for a successful gathering.
