Restoration Weeks combine teaching and prayer ministry, designed to build you up, bring God’s healing and enable a more intimate relationship with God. Ellel Glyndley Manor runs four different Restoration Weeks every year, each having a different teaching theme woven in.
THE MEN’S WEEK
This whole week centres around the goal of finding God in a new way, of discovering a Heavenly Father who is strong and loving towards us, and of being set on a new course in our lives, dedicated to Jesus and living life to the full.
Each day begins with teachings on relevant topics such as sexuality, temptation, stress, anger, father issues, and relationship struggles. These sessions are led by experienced speakers who offer biblical perspectives and practical insights.
As well as the teaching sessions, there are small group discussions, personal reflection times and prayer ministry opportunities where men can share their struggles in a confidential and supportive environment and have prayer from members of our team. These times of sharing allow for honest and open conversations about the challenges of life and give space for God to break through.
Evenings are for fellowship which includes BBQ and bonfire evening (weather permitting), where men can unwind, share stories, and enjoy meaningful conversations. Delicious meals are served, providing nourishment for both body and soul.
Throughout the week, there is a balance between learning, reflection, and recreation, fostering growth, connection, and spiritual renewal among the men who attend.
Personal restoration requires a gentle process and takes time, so we run a week-long event focussed on taking you into a deeper relationship with God. It gives you the time and space to refocus on God and for Him to work in and through you. There is a way to move forward in your life and walk with God unhindered, and this week aims to build your faith in Him as your provider and father.
The first three days of the Restoration Week centres on teaching and times of fellowship. This time includes a unique experience via our Ellel Ministries creative workshops, which for many has been a wonderfully effective part of their inner healing process. After a free day for rest and assimilation of the teaching, the second half of the week is made up of shorter and more specific teaching sessions with the opportunity to receive personal ministry.
Allow Jesus to minister to places only He and the Holy Spirit can reach, to open the way for true healing. In Christ, we have full hope of His healing and here at Ellel Ministries we have received testimony after testimony of lives changed! God is faithful. Come expectant, to receive God’s love in your life over this special Restoration Week, available at our centre at Ellel Glyndley Manor.
WHO ARE RESTORATION WEEKS FOR?

For those looking for insight and personal ministry on the subject of our current topics.

Come to Glyndley, and enjoy the peace, security and most importantly, a sense of God’s presence as you seek His greater work in your life.
COVID-19 POLICY
This policy was last updated on 23rd September 2021.
With the easing of national restrictions across the UK in the summer of 2021, we wanted to update you about the changes we are making at our UK centres. Please note that current restrictions will slightly differ at Ellel Scotland.
Health and Safety procedures that will stay in place:
Face Masks
The wearing of face masks will be optional for all guests and team. In Scotland, masks are still required in public areas and while singing.
Meetings and Worship
We will be returning to normal seating arrangements in our conference rooms and singing will be allowed by all present during times of worship.
Accommodation
We will be returning to shared bedroom accommodation at the centres.
Track and trace
As all of our guests are required to pre-book and register on arrival at the centre, we will have an accurate record of who is present. We also have the NHS QR code to register your visit for those using the NHS app in England.
Protecting our guests and helping everyone feel at ease
In the current world situation with Covid-19 it is our responsibility and heart to keep all our guests and team safe.
We agreed as a UK Leadership that we would follow the Government guidelines for each country and bring changes to procedures in-line with their advice and guidance. Below you will find the procedures we have in place in accordance with the new guidelines issued this summer.
The safety and wellbeing of our guests and team members is always at the forefront of our minds. We are confident in the operating procedures we have in place, but we are more confident in the faithful God that we all serve. Nothing can replace the importance of prayer and trust. He is the One we look to be our guide and our shield throughout these days!
Be assured – all our teams are working hard to keep you safe, but we are also praying hard! We love nothing more than hearing how welcome and “at home” our guests feel, and we cannot wait to welcome you back. Our prayer is that you feel just as ease and able to relax and enjoy the Lord’s presence as ever.
With many blessings
Andy Taylor
UK & Ireland Director
From the minute you step through our doors you can be confident that we have prayerfully and practically prepared the building for you.
In line with Government guidelines it is optional whether team and guests want to wear a face covering. We are also not enforcing social distancing at our Centres. In Scotland, masks are still required in public areas and while singing.
Our team members are brilliant, and their safety and wellbeing is of utmost importance to us. To ensure this we have adopted the following safety measures. Again, we will adapt these in line with guidance, but we want our team to feel confident and comfortable being at work and for those who live on-site.
It goes without saying that, as much as we can’t wait to see you, to keep everyone safe we need your help…
On arrival you will be welcomed by our reception team! If you are staying overnight, you will be shown to your accommodation, given details about the event such as mealtimes or where the teaching sessions take place. Our team and event hosts will be around if you have any further questions after arriving, and to help you feel at home during your time on the event.
Yes, there will be free time! How much free time you get depends on the length of the event, but there will always be opportunity for you to take a walk in the beautiful grounds, to chat with other guests, or take some time to yourself. For longer events, there will be free days where you can explore the local area, or rest.
This is a totally understandable question! A majority of guests on our events come on their own, and don’t know anyone else, so you won’t be the only one! Occasionally, some of the guests may come together, but it doesn’t take long for people to start chatting over mealtimes or coffee breaks and get to know each other.
If the event you are on offers time for prayer ministry, then you will have the option to have time with our trained ministry team. This in an opportunity for you to share what you would like prayer for. Prayer ministry is always confidential, caring, and considerate. For further information on how we minister see our Best Ministry Practice.
