Peace On Earth—Relational Peace
Good morning, Friends!
Today we are mixing things up a bit. We’re starting a new series for Christmas and, if you happen to be here at 11am on Sunday and are able: Join us online straight away! We’ll watch the video together via zoom, have communion and a song, and discuss peace on earth.
If you missed Sunday morning, do we have some good news for you! You can see right below these words, where it always is, is our trusty video sermon. Please watch at your convenience, and catch up with us next week at 11!
At any rate, we’re glad you’re here. I’m so looking forward to this Christmas season and all of the warmth and peace that we can find in it.
Let’s dig in!

Adopt-a-Family: New Giving Options
We’re partnering with Frederick Douglass Elementary as they reach out to the community to provide “Gift Cards from the Heart” to students and their families—a covid-safe option for the annual adopt-a-family gift event we participate in. These gift cards will provide for pressing physical needs as well as some fun over the holidays.
Goal: from now until the morning of December 3 we will collect gift cards in small amounts ($10-$15) from places like Target, Kroger, CVS, Walmart, etc.
Here are 4 ways you can give:
Donate any amount through Echo's giving portal from now til the morning of Dec 3 and choose Adopt-a-Family on the dropdown menu. The staff will take all collected donations and purchase a bunch of gift cards to take to the school.
Purchase digital gift cards and email them to Shanté.
Purchase physical gift cards and drop off at Kelly's house (message her to schedule) from now til the evening of Dec 2.
Purchase physical gift cards and drop off at the Frederick Douglass Elementary office on Wednesdays or Thursdays between 8am–1:45pm from now til Dec 3.
