Introduction
"Love the Lord your God with every passion of your heart, with all the energy of your being, and with every thought that is within you. This is the great and supreme commandment. And the second is like it in importance: You must love your friend in the same way you love yourself."
Allegra Ministries traces its roots to 2001 when Dr. Elaine Saville began serving in a local church. It was then that she dedicated her gifts of teaching and counseling to full-time ministry. A mission trip to Fiji in 2009 afforded her the opportunity to experience International ministry, thus igniting a passion for missions.
In 2012 Pastor Elaine felt led of the Lord to make pastoral counseling and spiritual direction available to people beyond a single church congregation. Allegra Ministries was established to follow this leading. The team soon grew with the addition of Pastor Linda and Pastor Laura, and the “Three Mamas,” as they are affectionately known, served people nationally and globally.
Allegra's local gathering, Allegra International Fellowship, was founded and chartered under the International Fellowship of Ministries (later renamed Renaissance Coalition") in 2017. The fellowship continues to grow in impact and influence through weekly meetings, retreats, and short-term mission trips.
At the heart of both ministries is the passion to:
-
Help people gain a greater revelation of God and His nature
-
Inspire intimate “God encounters”
-
Share God’s love in tangible ways that facilitate healing, transformation and empowerment.
Allegra also partners with other ministries who share a heart for unity in the body of Christ and are passionately working to see “on earth as it is in heaven” realized in this generation.
