• It has been a while since we have come together as a group to establish our ministry’s purpose. Before we can do that, we really need to come together and pray and seek God’s  will regarding the ministries He has placed on each of our hearts. God has called us to work together to make a difference in each other’s lives and the lives of all those who are within our influences. It is time for us to begin the very important ministry work we have been called to carry out. ESSCC Women of all ages are invited to fellowship. In love, Minister Stephanie Parker
