WELCOME TO ECC

Emmanuel is a community of people committed to giving Jesus Christ our worship through the careful study of His Word, the application in Our Walk, thus being disciples who share His warmth and do His work to reach our world.

Welcome Center If you are new to Emmanuel, we have a

Welcome Center in two locations. When exiting either location, the Welcome Center will be in the lobby to your left. We have

information about the church as well as a small gift for you.

eConnect If you want to know more about ECC, this one-hour

class will help you learn about the ministries of Emmanuel. eConnect is offered the first full weekend of the month: Saturday at

6:30 pm in Matthew (134) and Sunday at 11:00 am in Room 169.

Get Involved For a complete listing of ways to get connected at

ECC, visit our website at www.emmanuelcommunity.org.

The Commons You are invited before each service on Sunday

mornings to come to The Commons for coffee and donuts. It’s a

great place to meet new friends and see familiar faces. This room is located to the left when exiting the Worship Center.
