We have a place for you to serve:
BE A VOICE? We’re doing a recording session for the little kids’ movie-ette and are seeking 3 more voices. If you have a dramatic voice and are available this Saturday afternoon, there are three roles, two for men, in which you could use your voice to create ministry!
LOOKING FOR OCD people: If people have suggested that you are obsessive-compulsive (very focused on detail), God can use that for a ministry of helping to edit the movie! There are some easy pieces of work that just take concentration on detail so, if this describes you, consider jumping in!
EXTRAS NEEDED FOR A SCENE IN THE MOVIE! Join the fun of filming and dress up as a Roman citizen. Walk the “streets” of Rome and be part of the background in a very important scene being filmed Monday night. Let us know if you can join us!
Contact Miss Coleen is you would like to be a part.
Help needed to clean-up the current mulch, install new church signs and replace damaged ceiling tiles. Lunch provided.
Calling all ladies, 7th grade and up, to the first quarterly Sisters Gathering! Please register by May 19th.
June 20-24, 2022
An exciting week for kids AND grown-ups. It’s similar to a VBS but there’s some special things that aren’t your “usual” VBS. It’s where adults come to have fun too. During that week, we make new friends, laugh, eat lots of goodies, and get to know each other better. What better way to experience BEING the Body of Christ! If you would like to be a part of making this week happen, contact Miss Coleen for more information or see the flyer in the bulletin this Sunday.
Our year-long focus is a collective journey of what it means to follow Jesus, be changed by Jesus, and be committed to the mission of Jesus every day. (Matthew 4:19) Throughout this year we will tell stories, share testimonies, engage in conversations, and participate in biblical teaching to learn and live in greater ways as disciples of Jesus. We seek to be disciples of Jesus in every place, every relationship and in every circumstance in our everyday lives. It is how we will carry out or mission to “Share Life and Share Christ”.
Matthew 4:19 (NIV84) – “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”
Dale Sink will share how Christ has impacted his life. All men are welcome. Invite a friend or family member.
Do you have unused fabric around the house? Sisters Ministry would love to put it to good use! We will be creating drawstring bags to be filled with personal hygiene items for the Preble County Domestic Violence Women’s Shelter. You may drop your donation in the designated box in the Gathering Area or contact Jennifer Sinks at (937)467-1185 for pick up.

Maybe you remember it…singing songs, gobbling up yummy snacks, contests, games and so much more. Vacation Bible School has been part of life for many children growing up and maybe it was part of yours too! Researchers tell us that many kids who give their lives to Christ do so in a Vacation Bible School or Christian Camp experience. What we love about it is that every part of the experience is designed not just for unsaved kids, but to take kids who already know Jesus to new heights in their walk with Him!
Here at ECC, we call it the SUMMER SPIRITUAL SPECTACULAR and it’s one exciting week for kids AND grown-ups. It’s similar to a VBS but there’s some special things that aren’t your “usual” VBS. It’s actually where adults come to have fun. During that week, we let our hair down, make new friends, laugh, eat lots of goodies, and get to know each other better. What better way to experience BEING the Body of Christ!
So if you are not yet a part of things, here’s a few unique ways to be involved.
There are other ways – some of the “normal” ones you might think about. But consider jumping in – be a part of making a difference!
