Welcome!

ECC is made up of people just like you, and is a place with something for everyone. The purpose of this website is to help answer questions you might have about what God is doing at Elkhorn Community Church and to find some of the answers to questions about our church and the God we serve and love. We invite you to look around our site and get a feel for our church. It would be an honor to have you come and discover a community gathering to worship, seeking to learn more from God's word, building relationships with one another and serving in God's mission field side by side.

Thank you and God bless you,

Elkhorn Community Church

Keys to seeking 

1. Give Him the first of your day in reading His Word.
2. Consider His ways first in all decisions.
3. Give Him the first of your resources.
4. Place the advancement of His Kingdom first over any other "kingdoms".

And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.
Hebrews 10:25
