Happy Birthday ECA!! - A Note from the Stewardship Team
Don’t forget to bring a birthday card for ECA tomorrow (on Sunday)! We also invite members of both congregations to bring a picture(s) of loved ones who have died to add to our “ofrenda,” (in this case a community altar). We choose to celebrate All Hallows Eve, All Saints Day and All Souls Day together with our partner church :).
ALSO: Mark your calendars for Friday Nov 3rd for another First Friday event! It is ECA’s birthday celebration and everyone in the congregation is welcome to attend. Come join the community next Friday at The Episcopal Church in Almaden. See you there :)
