ASH WEDNESDAY SERVICE – February 22

Join us at Gospel Hill Camp (580 W Hwy 96 in Shoreview) as we begin our Lenten journey with a service of reflection and repentance. The service will begin at 7:00. We’re sorry, but we are unable to offer childcare for this event.

MEMBER MEETING – Sunday, February 26

ECC is hosting a potluck eat & meet after the second service on Sunday, February 26. Once we’ve feasted on some of Minnesota’s best home cookin’, we’ll discuss a number of key issues including our 2012 budget, our 2012 priorities, our nominees for the Leadership Team and Nominating Committee, our Worship Leader search process, the latest staffing changes and more. Everyone who wants to join us is welcome. Members will vote on the budget and nominees for the Leadership Team and Nominating Committee (be looking for details in an upcoming Member Mail).
