Bill & Ellen are the Senior Pastors of Myrtle House, the Elim Pentecostal Church in Llanelli.

Bill's passion is to introduce people to the amazing Jesus who transforms lives, forgives sin, heals hurts and gives dynamic purpose to life. Bill loves to teach the Word of God in a way that enables people to know God personally and how He wants them to live for the benifit of others and the Glory of His son, Jesus.
