Dear Ebenezer Family,

Greetings to you all in Jesus’ name! I trust that all is well with every one of you and your families. The Hill household has expanded and has increased in energetic output, with the addition of four (Keinon, Zsai, Cairo and Saint a Labradoodle), and I am pleased as pink lemonade.

Greetings From Pastor Hill

Dear Ebenezer Family,

The Executive Leadership Team met this week, and agreed upon June 27, 2021, as our first sanctuary worship since COVID19 restricted our in-person worship, and imposed restrictions on our personal lives that most of us have never experienced before.

We learned how to employ tools that enabled us to worship, to attend Sunday School and Bibl

Good morning EBC Family,

You know that the Lord has promised to keep them in perfect peace whose minds are stayed on Him. My thought for today is keep your mind on the Lord Jesus today and every day.

What have you learned from “The Ticking Watch?” It is so true that sometimes, if not most times these days that we need to sit down, keep quiet, and soon we will hear the voice of God speaking in our souls. Psalm 37 is one of the many Psalms that
