Small Church Connect
Starting this September 29, we are introducing a new way to find the Small Church that’s right for you.  We will meet every other Thursday night at Emmanuel Studios in New Brighton where we will form groups and help you find the group that’s right for you.   We will meet throughout the fall and help these new Small Churches to go deeper into God’s Word together, identify individual roles, and determine how the group wants to move forward.  Or, if it doesn’t feel the right fit, that’s okay too.  We can help find a new Small Church or ways to connect for you.

Childcare will not be provided for these evenings but we will talk about some options together in the first weeks.

Come to Covenant Pines with a bunch of other ECC guys as well as men from other Covenant churches in the Twin Cities for a weekend of fun, worship, teaching, and a whole lot of guy stuff.  Once again the ECC worship band will provide music all weekend long.  The speaker is Jeff Olson from Catalyst Covenant.  This year they’ve added an option to come up on Thursday (one day early) if you want.

The purpose of Man Camp is to strengthen your relationship with God and the guys around you. Every year men from all over Minnesota make the trip up to Covenant Pines Bible Camp in order to refocus on God and have some fun.

There is something special about this retreat. It allows for deep connection in such a way that is often difficult to find in the routine of normal life.
