[March 5, 2023] EPC Sunday Announcements

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.  Please join us in the Lobby after service at the "Welcome Team" booth where we'd like to exchange some information and offer you a small welcoming gift.  We look forward to getting to know you and walking after God’s joy in the Gospel together.

EPC Baptism and Confirmation
We are excited to have a time of baptism and confirmation on Easter Sunday (April 9).  Please register on our website where you can find the link to register.  The deadline to register is Sunday, March 5, 2023.

EPC EM Parents - PTA Meeting
The "EPC EM Education Liaison Deacons" will be hosting a PTA meeting for all EM parents with children in the Education Department of EPC (nursery through high school).  Please join the meeting on Sunday, March 12 at 11:45 AM in the EM Baby Room.  Discussion points will include what the role of the "Ed Liaison Deacons" are and to get feedback on how we can better serve our children and parents in growing in the Gospel. Please be sure to join us for this important time.

EPC EM Prayer Meeting
We strongly encourage and invite you to join us for a time of reflection, worship and intercessory prayer this Saturday, March 11, at 5 PM in the EM Sanctuary.  We look forward to continue pressing into what God has for us as He calls us to intentionally gather and pray as His church.

EPC Giving Tax Summary
The EPC Giving Tax Summaries have been emailed out a couple weeks ago.  If you have not received your statement or if you have any questions, please reach out to Deacon Charles Park ASAP.

EPC Giving and PayPal
If you give to EPC through PayPal on our website, please consider giving through "Check" (be sure to write your name in the Memo area for tax records)  in our "Offering Box" in the back of the Sanctuary near the Lobby.  This will help us avoid paying fees from the budget.  Of course, if PayPal is the best option for you, we will continue to support that option.

Youth Group Substitute Teachers
EPC Youth Group is looking for substitute teachers to cover if any regular teachers are unavailable.  If you would like to volunteer or would like more information, please reach out to Youth Pastor James Oh.

Offering & Tithe Reminder
If you are mailing in checks as your offering and tithe to God's church, please be sure to write in the "Memo" section of the check, "EPC EM", so that we can be sure to receive your support and to correctly update your personal tax information.  
If you are giving online, please remember to write your name in the "Comment" section on PayPal.  
Thank you for obeying and supporting the body of Christ with your resources.

EPC In-Person & Livestream Sunday Worship
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 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 Sunday Sermon Reflection Questions
We will be posting the "Sermon Reflection Questions" 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.
