On Sunday, June 4, Elizabeth City EMC broke ground for a new Family Recreation Area (FRA) to be constructed in the field located to the north of the FYF Center. The FRA will include brand new playground equipment for both preschool and elementary age children on either side of a 1,800 square foot covered pavilion furnished with vinyl-coated picnic tables and benches. Site work is scheduled to begin in June and principal construction in August.
We are excited about the new ministries to children and families the FRA will enable for our church, our neighborhood, and our larger community. If you would like to make a financial contribution toward the completion of this project, please visit our secure online giving portal at ecityemc.churchcenter.com/giving and be sure to click “Family Recreation Area” from the drop-down box.
Our VBS theme this summer is STELLAR Shine Jesus’ Light. Kids will be launched on a cosmic quest where they’ll have a blast shining Jesus’ light to the world. STELLAR rockets kids on an out-of-this-world adventure that’s light years of faith-building fun.
WHEN: Monday – Thursday, July 17 – 20
TIME: 9 am – noon (plus a closing program on Thursday evening at 5:30 pm )
Join us for our 2023 spring revival with Rev. Charles Elliott, May 21-24. This is our annual event where we set time apart as the body of Christ to allow the Holy Spirit to refresh, renew, and revive. Nursery care (0-3 yrs) will be available each evening by our wonderful volunteers! Bring your family and friends for this exciting time of seeking God together as the body of Christ!
About Our Speaker
Rev. Charles “Chuck” Elliott serves as Associate Pastor of Brookside Church in Chillicothe, OH. A graduate of Circleville Bible College in Circleville OH (now Ohio Christian University) and Wesley Biblical Seminary in Jackson, MS, he is married to his lovely wife, Jenny, and together they live near the Scioto River where they enjoy forests and farms so characteristic of the wide-open spaces and hilly lifts of beautiful southern Ohio.
Both Chuck and Jenny were drawn to Jesus and gave themselves to God and His purposes very early in their lives. Chuck served as a missionary in Hungary and Ukraine for 10 years, as a Christian educator in Ohio and Mississippi for 6 years, and as a cattle producer in Ohio for 10 years. While serving in these capacities, across the past 30 years, Chuck has served multiple pastoral roles within the Church, mostly bi-vocationally. Jenny has served communities in both Ohio and Mississippi as a pharmacist for her entire professional life. Together they have sought to be faithful living witnesses of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection by conforming to the gospel and by connecting in meaningful ways with others in collegiate and congregational life.
Chuck and Jenny enjoy traveling with friends, being in nature, trying new recipes, listening to most music, drinking African and South American coffees, exploring open-air farm markets, and watching BritBox.
Over the course of revival week, Chuck will be sharing a series of messages on the theme, “True Christian Daring: Proclaiming the multifaceted nature of Holy Love in the Harbor of Hospitality.”
