HERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING!

21 DAYS OF PRAYER
9/14 - 10/4
As we begin to launch into a new season we invite you to join us for a unique time to focus on God. Prayer has the power to affect both our internal and external worlds as well as set our minds and hearts in alignment with God. We invite you to join us as we use this time to intentionally seek God every day and trust Him to move in powerful ways. To participate in the daily devotional, sign up on a Connection Card this Sunday.

NEXT GEN SUNDAY

Students can sign-up to participate during their Sunday morning program or see our Next Generation Director Sandy Martindale to get plugged in.

FALL LIFE GROUP SIGN-UPS
Registration Open: 9/21 - 10/5
Life isn't meant to be done alone. Life Groups offer us a great way to meet new friends, have some fun together, connect on a deeper level, grow in our relationships with God and make a difference. Our fall group season starts the week of October 5th and lasts 6-12 weeks long depending on the group. The Fall Groups Catalog will be available beginning 9/21. Once you sign up for a group, you’ll then be contacted by your host with the rest of your group details.

Interested in hosting a group? If you've participated in an Epic group before, will you consider hosting one? All you have to do is choose a day, time and provide a welcoming space for people to grow in their faith and build friendships with others! To sign-up for more information, CLICK HERE!

FALL CLEANING PARTY
9/27 | 10:00 AM - NOON | ELC
Epic is the hub of a lot of activity throughout the week and as you can imagine it takes a lot to keep it looking and functioning at its best. Fall seems to be a great time for us to spruce up the place (ie. vacuuming, dusting, window washing, mopping, etc.) so if you’d like to be a part of helping to make our church shine sign-up on a Connection Card to join the team!

GROWTH TRACK - STEP THREE
9/28 | 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM | ELC
Refreshments & Childcare Provided
Our Epic Growth Track is a three-part journey that embodies our mission, vision and values. Each step you take is a building block, guiding you to deepen your connection with our church family, help you grow in your relationship with God and learn your God-given gifts and how to use them to make a difference. In STEP THREE of this journey you'll find out what it means to make a difference through Epic by connecting to the opportunities available for you so you can live out your purpose by using your God-given gifts. Register to attend on a Connection Card.
