About Us / Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find my child's classroom?

As you walk into the church, follow the hallway straight back and you will see signs for Crosswalk hanging around the Registration Desk. To the right of the hall is our Babies of Blessing and 1’s & 2’s Toddler Avenue classroom accepting children ages birth-2 years old. Straight ahead is our 3-4-5 Jump Street classroom, which accepts children ages 3-5 years or those still in Preschool. Children in grades Kindergarten through 5th grade are held upstairs in the park. 

Why is ECF called a “Word of Faith” church?  

I John 5:4 says, “This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.” Also, Mark 11:22-24 reveals to us that God has made His kind of faith available to us through believing and speaking His Word. Word of Faith is a phrase that describes a way of life for believers. God has provided for us all things that pertain to life and godliness. (2 Peter 1:3) It is now our privilege and responsibility to use our faith, the faith He has given us, to receive His benefits and expand His Kingdom. This Biblical truth is weaved through everything we do at ECF. The Word of God and faith that comes from His Word is the underlying foundation of our church.

Is ECFC a Charismatic Church?  

The word Charismatic or Full Gospel both refer to acknowledgement of the present day work of the Holy Spirit to empower believers to fulfill the work of the ministry. Charismatic is derived from the Greek word “charisma” which means gift. Full Gospel refers to embracing the gift of the Holy Spirit, as did the early disciples in Acts 2.

 
Along with the gift of the Holy Spirit are the manifestations of His presence as demonstrated in Acts 2, I Corinthians 12 and throughout the Book of Acts. At ECFC we are both Charismatic and Full Gospel in our beliefs. While the Word of God is always our final authority, love is always our motivating force.
