EPC Sunday Announcements (10/10/21)

Welcome Newcomers to EPC!

If you are new to EPC, welcome and God’s peace to you!  We are so glad that you were able to find and join us.  We hope that the worship is both encouraging and convicting to you in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  We would love to connect with you.  To do this, please go to our website, epcministry.org, and click on the “Newcomer” button on the upper right corner of our homepage.  You’ll find some introductory information there along with a form towards the bottom to share some contact information.  If you fill that out, we would love to send you a welcoming email and to encourage you.  We look forward to getting to know you and walking after God’s joy in the Gospel together.

EPC Season of “Rest & Refreshment”

We have transitioned into a season of “rest & refreshment” at EPC.  If you go to our website (epcministry.org) and click on “Announcements” under the “Connect” button, you will find a document laying out what this time will look like as we seek to come to a healthy place of participating and serving Christ in a healthy manner under Godly order.  Please pray for the leaders and servants of EPC as we look forward to how God will bless and grow us during this time.

EPC In-Person & Livestream Sunday Worship

For future reference, you can find our “in-person worship guidelines” and the “Sunday Worship YouTube Livestream” link on the homepage of our website at epcministry.org.

If you are joining us via "live-stream" and experience any issues, please email us at "emoffice@epcsj.org" to let us know as we grow in this new process. The "live-stream" link on our website will be updated every Sunday morning.

If you are with us in-person today and would like to give or tithe here at church, there is an offering box near between the Sanctuary and the EM Lobby where you can drop off your offering envelopes.  Otherwise, you can continue to give God your offerings online on our website under “Give”.

EPC Young Adult Ministry Large Group Gathering

The EPC Young Adult ministry is meeting this week Friday (Oct 15) at 6 PM (1st and 3rd week of the month).  Please join us for dinner, worship, the Word and fellowship.  Our sign-up link for Young Adult Life Groups is also live on our website (epcministry.org; go to “Ministries” and “Young Adults”) so be sure to go and sign up ASAP!  The deadline for sign-ups is Sunday, October 10.

EPC EM App

The EPC App is live on our website for both iOS and Android.  Please go and download it for easy access to notifications for church events and announcements, sermons and content, ways to give, and more.  For those joining us “in-person” for Sunday Worship, you can now also register your attendance in the EPC EM App!  A big thank you to our “Media Team” who worked so hard to make this happen!

EPC Virtual Discipleship with “Habits of Grace”

We are kicking off our church-wide virtual discipleship course in “Habits of Grace” (David Mathis) on Wednesday, September 29, 2021.  You can find an overview and schedule of what the course will look like on our website (“epcministry.org”) and in our EPC EM app (“EPC English Ministry”) with information about what to read for each session, where you can find the session video and reflection questions, and how to download the book for free in various formats (i.e. PDF, MOBI and EPUB).  The videos and reflection questions will be posted on Wednesday afternoons which you can find on our website and app (go to “Media” and click on “EPC Discipleship”) as well as on our YouTube page..  

This is a great opportunity during our season of rest and refreshment to commit ourselves to God’s Word and to reflect on how we are submitting to the Gospel in the daily rhythms of our lives.  We highly encourage all members of EPC to join us in this time of discipleship!

Communion at EPC

We will begin holding Communion on Sunday, September 26, and hold it on the last Sunday of each month afterwards.  This is such an important discipline of faith as we are reminded that we live in and out of the body and blood of Christ given for us.  We look forward to practicing Communion together and we will have information coming out in the next couple weeks to answer any questions and help us prepare for this.

Post-Sunday Worship Prayer and Reflection Room

If you would like to continue to pray and have a quiet space to reflect after Sunday service,
we have provided a space in the Conference Room located in the Lobby (next to Pastor Paul’s office).  Please feel free to continue to worship freely; we hope this is an encouragement to you.  If you would like to receive prayer, please reach out to Pastor Paul Shim after service.

EPC English Ministry Prayer Meeting

We will be gathering on Saturday, October 23, 2021 at 7 PM in the EM Sanctuary for a time of worship, reflection, and prayer.  We are excited for this time of gathering in order to faithfully pray in intercession for our church, the world, one another and ourselves, especially in this time of “rest and refreshment” for EPC.  We will be meeting toward the end of every month; specific times will be announced.  Please mark this in your calendars and we look forward to gathering together.

EPC Sunday Sermon Reflection Questions

We will be posting the "Sermon Reflection Questions" in the bulletin as well as on the website under "Announcements" to better give access to the various life groups that meet.

EPC Pastoral Care and Prayer Support

If you are in need of pastoral care or would like to request prayer support from the pastors of EPC, please don’t hesitate to go to our website (epcministry.org) and click on “Pastoral Care and Prayer Requests'' under the “Connect” button.  You can keep it confidential if you wish to do so but we would love to serve you by walking with you in fellowship and prayer!
