ECC Gather 2024
Wed Jun 26 - Sat Jun 29
The Annual Meeting is the highest legislative session in the Evangelical Covenant Church.
Every congregation is entitled to representation as we worship God and celebrate what God has done throughout the year. We gather to discern future direction, select leaders, consecrate missionaries, credential and ordain clergy and encourage one another to greater discipleship. We make determinations around funding the mission, and we hear about the challenges and opportunities in front of us. In it all, we get to meet new friends and strengthen old relationships.
Location: Cincinnati Marriott, Covington, KY
