Ellel Scotland helps Christians grow in God

Ellel Scotland has celebrated the success of two new courses designed to encourage and strengthen young adults in their relationship with God.

Weeklong courses The Quest and Discovering the Treasure of Life were launched in August and covered a mix of teaching, ministry, activities and outings to enable the delegates to flourish in their own personhood and faith in God.

"I feel different. I feel more alive and I now love the real me," said one participant on The Quest.

The gentler paced Discovering the Treasure of Life followed on from the success of The Quest in providing a "wonderful time of transformation for many", said Ellel.

"The family atmosphere of love and acceptance brought an added dimension to the teaching, ministry, creativity and outings."

The courses ran at Blairmore House in the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park in western Scotland.

One participant on the Discovering the Treasure of Life course shared: "God's healing and restoration started almost the moment I arrived at Blairmore."

Ellel said: "The environment created by the situation of the house and the diligent care of the team allows God to break through gently but powerfully. It is a delight to see God working in this way."
