Ed Elliott

Ed Elliott and his wife, Laurie, founders of Word of Life World Outreach, have been serving as missionary evangelists to Southern and Central Africa since Ed graduated from RHEMA in 1984. Their ministry focuses on evangelizing in hard-to-reach areas where there has been little or no missionary activity. The Elliotts travel to remote villages in various African countries to hold open-air crusades and establish local churches.

In conjunction with their crusades, they conduct teaching seminars for national pastors, evangelists, and others who sense the call of God upon their lives. Their “Bush Bible Schools” are vital to equipping and empowering national ministers to retain the great harvest produced by the crusades and to effectively present the Gospel to their own people. The Elliotts also hold Power for Living Conferences to minister to the Body of Christ around the world.

Ed says, “I believe the foundation I received at RHEMA is the major reason we have seen such tremendous success over the past 15 years. I can honestly say that we would not have been able to accomplish what we have accomplished without RHEMA’s input in my life. Another benefit of attending RHEMA is that RMAI has brought much-needed insight and fresh reminders concerning the things of God. I have made relationships that have been very beneficial spiritually and mentally.

“Since 1984, RHEMA’s growth and impact have been phenomenal! Now RHEMA’s outreach capability is nothing short of amazing considering all the nations they are reaching. And even with this tremendous growth, RHEMA is still concerned about the alumni. The care they have shown us has been a great blessing. We feel like part of the RHEMA family even though we are thousands of miles away on the mission field.

“There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t thank God for allowing me to attend RHEMA. I have met many missionaries who attended other Bible schools, but they were not equipped with the skills that I received at RHEMA. If you’re serious about the call on your life and fulfilling your destiny, I recommend without reservation that you attend RHEMA!”
