A Message from our Pastor Concerning the Coronavirus

“For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and love and of a sound mind.”
(2 Timothy 1:7)

 

Pastor & First Lady Schwartz

I would like to take this opportunity to encourage the Saints at ECOGIC, as well as people everywhere, to trust in the Lord with all of your heart during this very challenging time. Let us find refuge and safety in the Word of God which tells us that He will rescue us from every trap and protect us from deadly disease. (p.91:3) The Word of God also encourages us to submit to the rules and protocols that have been established by our governments, at every level, to deal with this critical time. Therefore, no services will be held at ECOGIC until such time that the authorities deems it safe to do so.

We have made every effort to keep our church fellowship going even though we can not physically meet. Please follow the scheduled online services which you will find on this webpage under “Join Us.” We will continue to meet on YouTube on Tuesday Night at 8pm for our Bible Study. On Sundays at 12pm we will meet on YouTube where we will have an abbreviated Worship Service. I’m asking each family to be in prayer on Wednesday nights from 7-7:30pm. The brothers of ECOGIC will continue to have Men’s Fellowship Hour from 7pm-8pm on Thursday nights (Dial-In).

Finally, I encourage all of us to continue to be good stewards financially each Sunday. You may send your offerings using the GIVE button located on the “What We Do” page. Those using Cash App may continue sending to $Englewoodcogic.

Let’s continue to pray that the Lord will eradicate this virus and restore us back to the fellowship that we all know and love. Pray for the healing of the world, the nation and all of our families.

Be Continually Blessed,

-Pastor Steven K. Schwartz & First Lady Andrea
