The Season after Pentecost

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

A Special Thank You Message from ECA Members David & Elizabeth Still

It has been nearly 18 wonderful years that we have been in the ECA family. Didn’t think that we would be doing this at our age, but we are leaving Woodstock for Hickory NC. The call of family has come, and we have decided to answer it. We want to thank Fr. Paul and all of you for the friendships, support, love and prayers we have received. Our best to you all. We will be no farther away than you’re your telephone.  -- David
