Ellel Ministries Africa

The work of Ellel Ministries in South Africa was established in 2002 and is based at Shere House, Pretoria - the African headquarters for the work. Africa's varied and often violent history has left many hurting and traumatised people for whom the teaching of Ellel Ministries is life-transforming.

In such a huge and diverse continent as Africa, where the economy does not allow most Christians to travel to a centre in another country, it is important that God's healing is taken to the people. Our desire, therefore, is to take the teaching and ministry everywhere, following the strategy implicit in the words of Luke 9:6, ‘So they set out and went from village to village, preaching the gospel and healing people everywhere.'

Telefriend is a telephonic evangelistic outreach to the world and caring prayer ministry support to the Body of Christ. Ellel Ministries and Telefriend were brought together in 2004 to be run as one operation under Derek Puffett's leadership. Our linking with Telefriend is already fulfilling the vision to take the ministry across the nation. Also, rapidly growing links with other countries are providing opportunities for teaching and ministry in other parts of the African continent.
