We're so glad you're here!
We know meeting someone for the first time can be intimidating, and going to a new church for the first time can be nerve-wracking, too. We want to help make your first experience at Elim a great one!
WHERE AND WHEN
We here at Timaru Elim meet once a week on a Sunday morning at 10 am.
7 Elizabeth Place, Timaru 7910
What can I expect?
HOW LONG ARE WORSHIP SERVICES AT Timaru Elim?
A typical worship service at Timaru Elim is 1.5 hours long. We'll begin with the band singing a few songs, someone will share a couple of announcements and welcome everyone, and then our pastor or someone else will share a message. You're then invited to stick around in the cafe and meet someone new over a cup of tea or coffee.
WHAT'S THE CULTURE LIKE AT Elim?
At Timaru Elim we want you to come just as you are. Jeans and a T-shirt and jandles are totally normal, as are red bands and swandri's. Services are geared toward both the long-time Christian and the first-time guest. When you walk out the doors at the end of a worship service, our hope is that you will have experienced God in a way that the rest of your week is better.
WHAT ABOUT MY KIDS?
Kids and families are a huge part of Elim, and that's why we want to make sure your kids have a blast learning about Jesus every weekend!
Elim Kids is our kids ministry for preschool through Year 8. During the service your kids will have fun singing songs, playing games, doing crafts, and experiencing God in an interactive and safe environment. All our kids church leaders are police checked.
A nursery is also available during the service where you may feel more comfortable to sit with your baby while you enjoy the service.
