ECC is bringing back Christianity’s contribution to the culinary world – the potluck!  You can sign up to bring a main dish, salad, dessert, or bread in the Connection Center.  The Potluck will take place after the service on Sunday, November 23.  There’s no cost and ECC will take care of drinks, plates and flatware.  Remember to invite family and friends!  It’s a great opportunity to introduce them to your new church.

ECC Teen is moving to Rice Creek Covenant Church. RCCC will be a great fit! It's both close & cozy. You can mapquest the location @ 125 Ash street, Shoreview MN 55126 or get directions from their web site (ricecreekcov.org). Our next meeting is Wednesday, November 19 from 7:00 until 8:30 pm.

Contact Pastor Chris for more info: chris@emmanuelcovenant.com

John and Mary March were recently given the green light to plant a brand new Covenant Church. In preparation for their launch, they'll be spending the next six months fine-tuning their skills with us. Please help John, Mary and their kids (Josiah - 3, Mercy -1) feel right at home. John's official first day on the job isn't until December, but you're likely to see several March's this November.

We're launching a brand new monthly event called "Panino's with the Pastor". If you have questions about ECC or would just like to get to know Pastor Chris a little bit better, join him for lunch at Panino's restaurant after the service on December 14. to RSVP, simple email Pastor Chris by Sunday December 7 (chris@emmanuelcovenant.com).

ECC is in the process of developing an online photo directory for our Covenant Partners (Click Here to learn more about Covenant Partners). In the near future, ECC Covenant Partners will be able to submit an individual or family photo and will receive a special login # to gain access to our new online directory. Stay tuned!

It's not too early to sign up for Family Camp @ Covenant Pines (July 2 - 5, 2009). While designed primarily for families with young kids, people of all ages will enjoy an extended weekend of fun chapels (featuring our own Pastor Chris), great food, incredible free time options, and inspirational worship in the midst of God's creation. Let's bring back shared memories of bonfires, swimming, fishing, zip lines, sling shots, boating, creative programs and sunsets by the lake.

Covenant Pines is nestled between two secluded lakes on a gorgeous piece of property in Northern Minnesota. The weekend is very affordable with big price breaks for large families. You can check out the camp and register online at their website - covenantpines.org.
