WHAT TO EXPECT @ EBC
Our people are a blessing. None of us are perfect but we serve a perfect God and strive to love well as we follow Him together. Come as you are, we will love as you come.
To provide safety and peace of mind, our safety team is present onsite and monitoring cameras to respond to any emergent concerns that may arise as part of ensuring the well-being of congregants.
Our parking lot is accessible from two separate entries off Motley Drive as you are going northbound (away from I-30). All of our parking spots are wide and there are extra wide spots next to the crosswalk for anyone with accessibility needs. The crosswalk, including a small ramp, leads directly to our main entry under the steeple where greeters and warm coffee await your arrival.
Restrooms are wheelchair friendly and located in the hallway of the classroom wing on the far side of the sanctuary just past the water fountain. Our Welcome Area is available with a variety of chair options for reflection or fellowship. This area is equipped with a secondary coffee station with k-pods for those who like flavored coffee or hot water for tea. Our greeters will be glad to walk with you – just ask.
Children’s ministry workers will meet you at the main entrance (under the steeple) to help with your kids. The children will be able to worship through Bible stories with corresponding craft, action songs, and play time. A room is also available for moms and their sleeping infants. Please note: Our desire is to acclimate 4th graders and above into corporate worship, so we ask that they join us in the sanctuary. If you would like your younger children to stay with you also, we are happy to have them.
Bible study starts at 9:30a in the Fellowship Hall, the large room to your right, as you enter the main doors. We are making our way through the Bible from cover to cover with open discussion so we can learn from each other. Coffee and water are available. Come on in and join the discussion.
Congregational Worship Services are at 10:30a and 4:00p on Sundays in the Sanctuary, which is to the left as you enter the main entry under the steeple. Each of our services last about an hour. Space is available for those with special needs and their families to allow for family worship. Onsite hearing assistance devices available upon request.
Our 10:30 AM service is a blended service to include a mixture of hymns and contemporary songs which helps prepare our hearts for what God has for us via the message.
Our 4:00 PM service format is a little different. We call it Kingdom Impact. We do 4 songs, mostly contemporary music, followed by a time of preaching or a devotional. We close this service with an additional song, the song of impact, as it challenges us to Go and Share the Gospel.
The invitation, toward the conclusion of both services, provides an opportunity to respond publicly if you are in need of prayer or want to know more about salvation or church membership. We are also available after services to answer any questions you may have. If you would like to learn more about what we believe, check out the ABOUT EBC page.
CELEBRATE RECOVERY, a Christ-centered, all life issues, 12-step program is available to attend every Tuesday night at 7:00p in the Sanctuary, followed by gender specific small groups in the classroom wing.
We look forward to meeting you and helping you on your spiritual journey.
