2025 Stewardship Campaign

November 2024

Dear ECLC Community,

Our steadfast, anchored, and bold community holds hope for the world. Thank you for the many ways you support the mission and ministry of ECLC and for the inspiring ways you care for one another and the world. We need each other, and the world needs us. 

Our dreams for ECLC come together around a theme of hospitality: Joyful and full-hearted welcome!  In the spirit of this vision, we aim to make several important investments in 2025:

  • Adding an audio-visual technician to ensure our livestream runs smoothly, that our worship leaders and musicians can be heard, and that guest presenters’ needs are accommodated. 
  • Updating our technology to improve the quality of the livestream in Fellowship Hall.
  • Fully funding JAM Camp to give children from ECLC and our partner congregations a meaningful and inclusive camp experience.
  • Ensuring adequate support for costs related to the pastoral transition.

To bring this vision to life, we have two goals. First, we want to increase the number of households that make a financial commitment to support the church in 2025 to 240 households—a goal we believe is within reach. Second, we invite everyone to prayerfully consider their gift and discern whether they can increase their giving by any amount. Meeting these goals will allow us to continue and deepen our mission, equipping us to grow into a future that urgently needs our presence and voice.

What can you do to make this vision a reality? Turn in your commitment card for 2025—together our gifts will create momentum that will bring our mission to life. You can respond with your commitment by completing it online at eclc.org/stewardship-commitment-form, or by turning in your commitment card during worship, at the church office, or by mail.

We will share our progress throughout the coming weeks and celebrate our collective achievements together in December. When we give together, we create a powerful impact that extends far beyond our walls.

In hope and good courage,

Pastor Natalia and Pastor Jeff
