Mission Conference 2024, April 13-14

EP’s Mission Conference 2024: ‘To Seek and Save the Lost’ is set for April 13-14, and will feature Dan Iverson (MTW Japan) along with ten missionaries serving globally or locally. Hear about their work in Cuba, Canada, Puerto Rico, West Africa, Ethiopia, and other countries as well as on college campuses in our region. We’re hosting a breakfast at 9 a.m. on Saturday followed by a family-focused Mission Fest at 10 a.m., where we will meet the missionaries and see their displays. We’ll have some fun activities to engage the kids. On Sunday evening, we’ll host a Mission Conference Dinner at 4:30 p.m. Mission Fest follows at 5:30, with break-out sessions with our missionary guests. While the breakfast and dinner sign-ups are full, there is no need to sign up for the Mission Fest portions of the Conference. All are welcome to join us for Mission Fest. View the conference schedule below. For questions, please contact Clif McClain or Kristen MacDonald.

‘Hope for the Journey’ Conference for Caregivers

Show Hope’s ‘Hope for the Journey’ Conference is a simulcast event hosted at EP. The conference encourages and offers resources to parents, caregivers, and families meeting the needs of children entrusted to them through adoption and/or foster care. The conference also serves churches and organizations in their ministries to and support of these children and families. Come and learn about working to reduce barriers that stand between children and places of security, healing, and hope. The conference will dive into the principles of Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®), which is a care model for children impacted by trauma. We will connect this care model to the gospel. Join us Friday, April 19, from 6:45-8:45 p.m. and Saturday, April 20, from 8:15 a.m.-5 p.m. in the Chapel. Registration is $15. Click or tap the button below to sign up. If you have questions, please contact Carolyn Beall or Laurie Nelson.

Your EP elders wish to invite you to a Session Information meeting on Thursday, April 25 at 7 p.m. in the Chapel.
