- We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who lived in obedience to the Father. He was crucified on the cross as an atoning sacrifice for our sins, redeeming us by His blood. He rose from the dead and in His resurrected today ascended into heaven where He is exalted as Lord of all.
- We believe in the Universal Church which is a unity of spirit, baptised believers and that the Church is the body of Christ.
- We believe in the return of the Lord Jesus Christ to judge the living and the dead and take with him all those who have believed in His name.

Brief History of the Church
In January 2008, four Tamil speaking individuals in the city of Aberdeen came together and formed the “Aberdeen Tamil Christian Fellowship”. They started to worship together once a month. Five months later, few more individuals joined the group and met twice a month. Since then God has been adding numbers to this fellowship of love fulfilling His desire of
“They shall be my people and I shall be their God”.
– Jeremiah 32:38 –
In July 2012, they moved to their present venue and by the Divine plan of God. In April 2019 the ministry was established as the “El Shaddai Church”. The name “El Shaddai” means “God Almighty” which tells us God has infinite power. Seek him and get to know him and you will lack no good things. He created this world and everything we see in it.
