About
We, at El-Bethel Mission, have three main objectives. Firstly, we aim to advance Christianity wherever practicable. Secondly, we strive to promote eye health care within isolated communities. Lastly, we work to address mental wellbeing issues that these communities may face. To achieve these goals, we collaborate and partner with churches, organisations, companies, and individuals. Through these partnerships, we build capacity and manage various projects and events.
Our History
From the mandate to reach out to the isolated community with the basic instruction for life survival* ... and a passion to see change in a somewhat hopeless situation**, El-Bethel Mission continues its mission to facilitate the isolated community into social inclusion while bridging the gap of social inequalities; an indirect response to Jeremiah 8:22.
Mothy Varkey believes that the church has the potential to adapt and become a healing and transformative force in society. In a similar vein, Isaac of Abraham demonstrated a comparable approach during a period of scarcity in the Valley of Gerrar. He reacted authentically and proactively to the famine, without compromising his dedication to God’s Word. His success was a result of resilience, integrity, and self-discipline.
El-Bethel Mission, a faith-based charity in the UK, is committed to ongoing collaboration to gather the necessary resources. This includes a skilled team at all levels, armed with the appropriate toolkits, to guide beneficiaries towards a mindset of success. Studies have indicated that families depend on their spiritual beliefs for emotional, mental, and physical health. Pastoral care will be provided to ministers, their congregations, and the wider public.
Our approach is also guided by four core components of the WHO’s Strategic Objective 2, as well as various white papers on mental health, mental wellbeing, problem-solving, and global cohesion. These resources propose, recommend, and even prescribe proven solutions to address current challenges, striving to promote a sense of belonging and acceptance for all those impacted by these urgent matters. In doing so, we stand in unity with those who are impoverished, vulnerable, and oppressed, like those of Adullam. < more >

Mission
Our objectives reflect a commitment to spiritual growth and social welfare, aiming to create a positive impact both within and beyond the community. They are:
Advancing the Christian faith throughout the UK and beyond: This objective involves promoting and spreading the teachings of Christianity not only within the UK but also in other parts of the world. This could be achieved through various means such as organizing religious events, distributing religious literature, conducting Bible study groups, and more. The aim is to deepen people’s understanding of the Christian faith and encourage them to incorporate its teachings into their daily lives.
Advancing the prevention of poverty among the isolated community: This objective focuses on alleviating poverty within communities that are isolated, either geographically or socially. This could involve providing direct assistance like food, clothing, and shelter, or indirect assistance like education and job training. The goal is to empower these communities, improve their living conditions, and help them become self-sufficient.
