Membership Covenant
All In
ECC members have been baptized (as an infant, child, teen or adult), profess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and look to the Bible as their authoritative Source for belief and conduct.
Prior to becoming a member, individuals also attend our Membership Course and sign a Membership Covenant.
A “covenant” is a Biblical word that binds people together in meaningful relationship. Our covenant at ECC involves all of us going all in.
