The Lord has called Ellel Ministries to use buildings that are both practical and beautiful, to provide the right environment where people can confidentially and safely receive help and also training. Our centres are expensive to maintain and develop, so we must share some practical funding needs that facilitate our vision. Thank you for your support!
Donations to our general funds are of most flexible value as we continue to offer personal ministry without charge and subsidised training. However, you can also support more specific needs at the centre in the following ways:
Please select which category of project you would like your donation to be used for. If you would like your gift to go to something specific please email us at finance.pierrepont@ellel.org to let us know how you would like your donation to be used.
Including Ellel Pierrepont in your will is easier than you might think, and it can have a significant impact on the future and fruitfulness of the ministry.
Legacy GivingLike any household, emergencies and unexpected breakages and bills happen. Which is why we are so grateful if you are able to help us deal with some of these immediate needs of our work. There is almost always an urgent need, whether it’s a broken down dishwasher or an expensive but leaking roof repair.
Five offices have been damaged by water ingress in the Cana building area. Now that the roof has been replaced, we can start to repair walls and ceilings, and renew electrical fittings.
God has provided in amazing ways over the last year, but ongoing visa issues and international travel uncertainties are currently still impacting the number of people who can come on NETS – our main programme and main source of income.
We have several ongoing projects to maintain our Health and Safety compliance around the property. Much of this work has to be carried out by specialist firms, for example Fire Risk Assessment and Electrical testing.
Maintenance of our properties is a huge challenge, especially when the buildings have a historic listed status. We are increasingly mindful of how the passage of time brings wear and tear to the interior and exterior of our buildings. Rain is a perpetual erosion agent and window frames, guttering, roofs and exposed walls are constantly in need of vital, yet often hugely expensive repairs. Your gift means we can keep our buildings healthy, safe and fit for purpose.
The roofs of our buildings are old and in need of maintenance; in some cases urgent repair; in some instances require replacement. We would value your contributions.
The van is an essential vehicle requirement for moving furniture or other large items around or off the property. It needs to be repaired or replaced as it cannot be used at present.
Bathrooms need to be renovated to remove mould and damp, and old fittings replaced.
Our Conference Hall can seat up to 300 people, but many of our red chairs are in need of replacement. We plan to get 200 new chairs this year.
God never stands still in His vision for His church and His people, and He often calls us into places of faith for things that glorify His name. The work of Ellel never stands still and we find ourselves constantly challenged with what the Lord seeks to do, as He grows His Kingdom influence where it’s allowed to flourish. We therefore would like to share with you these other major projects that we believe the Lord has asked us to accomplish, yet are financially unviable for us without major donation support. Would you stand with us, whether in prayer or finance, to help us accomplish what we believe will reap great spiritual fruit in the lives of many.
UPDATE:
Praise God the money has been raised and the new roof is watertight!
The water supply coming into Pierrepont is restricted by small pipes that need to be completely replaced and brought up to modern standards. Other utilities need to be replaced in line with H&S regulations.
Every year we have applications from people around the world who want to come and do 6-12 months training and equipping on NETS. We would love to be able to offer bursary places to those who should come, but can’t afford fees on top of flights and visa costs.
The current laundry building is an old classroom from the days Pierrepont was a school, and the roof and walls are in need of replacement. We have plans to repair a nearby building to use as a laundry area instead which is stone built but needs a new roof and windows.
We are deeply grateful for donations large and small, yet we know who our ultimate provider is: our Lord Jesus Christ, Jehovah Jireh. For those of you with a heart to pray for the lost, broken and needy in this world, who have a passion for the lost sheep and desires the Church be united through wholeness and healing – then we covet your prayers for our ministry into the church and the world. Your prayers, supplications and intercessions undergird everything we do. This page displays all our practical prayer needs, where prayer for finances is needed to cover all our ongoing costs to maintain the ministry God has called us to. Yet, our need and purpose for prayer goes much further than just our practical and financial need. If you would like to be deeper involved in the prayer life of Ellel Pierrepont, please visit our “Pray” page, which gives dates for our regular prayer support meetings.
