Bishop Wright to Visit to ECA on Sun. Feb 13^th with a forum & 10:30AM worship 

Bishop Wright is scheduled to come to ECA on Sun Feb 13^th for a visit.  This will be an opportunity for those seeking to be Confirmed, Received, & Affirmed by the bishop and we will also be celebrating a baptism. We will have a reception following the service so stay tuned for more details, food sign up and needs.

We continue to monitor reports and trends with current COVID infection rates and numbers. Cobb County and surrounding counties have a high amount of infection rates and cases at this time. More and more members of ECA have recently tested positive for COVID, with that in mind, please do not attend any events if you have any cold like symptoms. With our current policies and protocols in place, the risk of being exposed is minimal and members who are possibly exposed are contacted as a precaution. We continue to follow safe protocols to minimize the risk of infection so we can continue to worship in person at ECA. We will continue to remain transparent with information regarding our policies and procedures on how we gather safely to worship in these anxious and uncertain times. Blessings, Fr. Paul+ and the Vestry
