Wondering about our service?

Discipleship Clases

Our classes are 45 minutes long and are grouped by age, grade, and interests. Classes serve individuals from infants to senior adults.

Children’s Worship

Bible-oriented activities are provided for preschool – K5 and 1st – 5th grade Sundays at 11am. At this level, young children are taught to sing, pray, memorize scripture, and learn important Bible truths. They are instructed and led in worship at their own levels.

Adult Worship Service

EWC services may be vocal with collective praise as worshippers are invited to express outward love and adoration. The services may also include quiet times of waiting in God’s presence for spiritual direction.

Worship styles will reflect a wide variety of personalities. Some are quiet and reserved; some shout with joy; others are tender and openly emotional during times of praise or preaching.

No sincere worshipper should feel out of place at EWC. Each expression will blend without disruption to the flow of worship.

Music

Music is a major feature of our worship before, during, and even after the service. Instruments generally include piano, guitars, drums, and voices.

Any given service may include hymns, gospel songs, contemporary, or worshipful choruses.

We overlook the performance and entertainment of music and turn our songs into a form of worship.

Prayer

A special time in the service is devoted to prayer. Needs from inside and outside the church family frequently are made known.

The congregation prays together as a community. All may pray aloud but conclude with a single voice, the worship leader or other designated person praying on behalf of all.

Anointed Prayer

Specific prayer may be offered for the sick. They will be invited forward to be anointed with oil (James 5:13-16) and/or have the ministers, leaders, or other believers lay hands on them and pray (Mark 16:18).

Tithe & Offering

Tithes and offerings will be received each worship service. More than a collection to pay church bills, this too is a form of worship and we believe you will be greatly blessed by your givings.

We believe giving the tithe (the first tenth of income) and offerings declares that God comes first. It recognizes His blessings, expresses faith, and seeks His guidance in every matter of life.

Sermon

Our pastor delivers a God inspired sermon each week. Sermons will include scripture reading and a message relating the scripture to our lives today.

The sermons are fervent, inspiring, and practical.

The pastor may close with an invitation for those who need forgiveness, rededication, or a closer walk with Christ. Often everyone is invited to come pray during altar service.

What we believe

  1. In the verbal inspiration of the Bible.
  2. In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  3. That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.
  4. That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.
  5. That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
  6. In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the Word, and by the Holy Ghost.
  7. Holiness to be God’s standard of living for His people.
  8. In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart.
  9. In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and that it is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
  10. In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
  11. Divine healing is provided for all in the atonement.
  12. In the Lord’s Supper and washing of the saints’ feet.
  13. In the premillennial second coming of Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on the earth a thousand years.
  14. In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.
