When the sun goes down on December 24, we officially begin Christmastide, twelve days of celebrating the birth of Christ the Savior.

On New Years Eve Day, Sunday Dec 31st, those who are in town are invited to gather at the church for a potluck brunch at 10AM. We will worship by breaking bread and sharing in communion.

On Jan 7, we will celebrate Epiphany together. Christmastide culminates on Epiphany which is January 6th and we will observe this day together on this Sunday. Epiphany, which means 'reveal', celebrates Jesus being revealed and worshipped as God with us.

Join us, December 24th at our normal worship time of 10:00am, as we gather to tell the story of Emmanuel, God with us. We tell this story every year. We tell this story because it illustrates so clearly God’s desire to be in relationship with us. We tell this story because we, too, are invited to come to the manger and witness the miracle of birth. We tell this story because it brings us hope and good news—hope especially for those deemed powerless, unworthy, or unwelcome. We tell this story because it is a story we need to hear again and again; if we didn’t tell it, what would become of our faith? And so, on this day, we will tell this story to pass along the good news and to continue to thread together the generations with hope. We hope you will join us.

Jesus Christ is coming. We wait and prepare in hope, peace, joy, and love.

Please note that we will not be having an evening service on December 24th

We have a great opportunity for our ECL kids! Mrs. Alicia and Mrs. Karis will be putting together a children's choir to lead a worship song during the advent season.

Rehearsals will be at 9:15 on Sunday mornings, beginning Nov. 12th, and any child grades 1st-5th is welcome to join. They will be learning one song and will be sharing it with our congregation on December 17th and December 24th.

We have some exciting news. After much prayer, thought, and many conversations, the elders would like to nominate three new candidates for eldership at Ecclesia Clear Lake: Kris Armstrong, Bri Perea, and Michael Rice.

On October 1st, we will have a quick election after church. All people who consider ECL home are encouraged to stay and participate. If the candidates are voted into eldership, we will commission them in the worship service on a future Sunday. If you have any questions, please contact one of the elders.
