All Saints Sunday/ Pledge Sunday

 "Our Mission is to bear witness to God's love and invite, encourage, and prepare God's people to share that grace with others." 

Daylight Saving Time Ends This Saturday

Don't for forget to set your clocks back one hour before bed on Saturday night.

Rooted in Abundance 2023 Stewardship Campaign: Pledge Cards Turned in This Sunday. On All Saints Sunday, members can place their pledge cards of time, talent, & treasure in the basket on the altar or collection plates as a symbolic act of our faith commitment to God and the church. Once we have received the pledges at the altar we will then bless them and give thanks for the abundant blessings God has given in our lives and also acknowledge what God is doing at ECA and in our ministry to the world.
