Groups @ ECC

Imagine if you could expand your network of solid, Christian friends.

Imagine if more people where praying for you, encouraging you and supporting you.

Imagine if you could experience discussions about the Bible in an environment where it was safe to ask questions. Any questions.

Our small groups take many forms.  Some groups discuss the Bible, a DVD, a book or a topic and apply these lessons to life.  Support groups provide safe communities for help and encouragement.  Other groups gather around service projects, shared interests and stages of life.

Specific group offerings vary from year to year and season to season.

Starting (Or Hosting) A Group

At ECC, we love to encourage and empower people to launch new ministries!

If you have an idea for a group, simply gather at least three other people who share your interest/passion and pitch your idea to Tim Anderson. We’d love to both help you get started and support you along the way.
