About us
El Bethel Fellowship was started by David Atigbor with the vision of reaching out to people who are hurt, broken in heart, feeling hopeless and lead them to the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Healer, the Savior and the Hope. While on a business trip with his wife to Germany in 2008, the couple were heartbroken to see the churches empty and people drifting away from their faith in God. They prayed and asked God if it is His will, He should bring them back to Germany to minister to these lovely people and show them the love of Jesus Christ. God, being so faithful, brought them back to Germany in 2015 from Shanghai. Before moving to Germany, David and his family lived in Shanghai. While in Shanghai, he served as an elder the Harvest Fellowship, leading worship services, preaching the word of God and making disciples among the Chinese people.
Although most people associate the word "church" with a building or a denomination, the meaning of the Greek word for "church" in the New Testament is an assembly of people. When Jesus told His disciples that He would build His "church" He was not referring to a building or an organization but simply to a group of people redeemed from sin by His sacrificial death.
The true nature of the church is an assembly of people and the true essence of Christianity is not just following a mere religion but having a relationship with God, and this is what we focus on in our fellowship.
