Your Help Needed!
We need a concentrated effort in the next 30 days in putting brochures on
doors to let our surrounding community know about ECS. If you live within
five miles of the church and are willing to pass out flyers on the doors of
your neighborhood, please see Pastor Barnes and he will give you some
to take home. We sincerely need many volunteers from our church, even if
you don’t have children in our school, to tell your neighborhood that we are
here. At the same time, you will be letting them know our church is here.
