Our Mission
Zechariah 14:7: But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
It is the mission of the Evening Light Fellowship to preach the Message of the Hour to a world that is in great need of a Saviour. We believe that before the end of the world, and the Rapture, that Christ would send the world a final Message of hope that will light the path back to Him. His Message was given in this hour to “preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God” as Isaiah 61 states. Our mission is not for you to join yet another church or denomination, but to show you Christ as He truly is: your only help in a very dark world.
our story
Our story starts in 1979 in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, when a young man of 23 years of age had a supernatural experience with our Lord Jesus Christ. Our Bro. Mark Coffey saw an advertisement in the newspaper telling of the Message of the Hour which quickened something in his heart for Christ. After surrendering his life to Christ, his life and testimony began to encourage others to Christ. Eventually, a small church was formed in St. John’s. After 40 years of ministry, our little church has grown by grace. Through the years, we have endeavoured to help those in need through our missions work, online witnessing, and local ministry.
Our Pastor
Bro. Jonathan Curlett has been the pastor since 2023. He attended the church from childhood through early adulthood before moving away for a number of years. He was sovereignly called to the ministry in 2015 and served as an evangelist across Canada prior to moving back to Newfoundland to support this local work. He returned to Newfoundland in 2020 with his wife, Blanca, and their four children. His passion is to preach the depths of the Word of God in clarity and simplicity so that it has the same effect in lives today as it did when Christ and the disciples walked this earth. His greatest desire is to preach and express a living God and to draw people into a true relationship with Jesus Christ, where they can experience His supernatural changing power today.
our message
Malachi 4:5-6: Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
As John the Baptist was prophesied in Malachi 3 to forerun Christ’s first coming, Malachi 4 prophesied another prophet would forerun Christ’s second coming. This passage of Scripture foretells that this prophet or messenger would restore the faith of God’s people back to the full Word of God that was preached by the Apostolic fathers in the Book of Acts.
The Message that this prophet would bring would not be a new radical doctrine. This Message would simply point the church back to the full Word, to bring them back to the original faith of the first church, and to get them into Rapture-ready condition. The Message brought clarity to the truth of the Godhead, water baptism, the original sin, election and predestination, who the Bride of Christ is, the mystery of His second coming and the Rapture. We believe that prophet to be William Branham. His ministry was vindicated by God through supernatural signs and wonders, his emphasis on a personal relationship with Christ, and his total adherence to the Bible as the only absolute. Today, the five-fold ministry carries on this end-time Message with the belief that we will see Malachi 4:6 fulfilled in our lifetime.
