The deacons of ECPC oversee mercy ministry, but Renee Whorton serves on
the church’s Mercy Ministry Team as WIC liaison. She will be glad
to help you find your place of service. If you have questions about
any of the above ministries, or a passion for a mercy ministry that
we can help you explore, please contact Renee at
thewhortons@bellsouth.net .
For questions or comments, please contact the Women in the Church at WIC@ecpca.org. |
