OUR VISION


Mission Statement

Our mission is to create community for single adults to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and one another.


Vision Statement

Our vision is to create an all-encompassing campus for single adults, where we can host a variety of Christ-centered events that will help them grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and one another.


Core Values

Biblical Truth

We believe that the Bible is the authoritative Word of God. We therefore trust and submit to its principles for truth, protection, and guidance.


Welcoming Community

We believe every person is created in God's image and should be valued. We believe God has called us to be in relationship with one another and to accept each other; giving preference to others over ourselves.


Encouraging Spiritual Growth

We believe Christians should be encouraged and equipped to draw closer to God by finding their place in His story. As we grow in our knowledge of Christ and respond to the gifts He has given us, we will glorify Him and make Him known.


Authentic

We are fearless in our genuine pursuit of transparency so the unchangeable character of God is expressed through our strengths and struggles.


Outreach

Out of our love for Jesus Christ and our desire to fulfill His last commandment; we seek to present the whole gospel, to the whole person, throughout the whole world.


Serve

We believe that God's love is revealed to the world through joyfully serving one another.


Christ-Centered

We believe that Jesus Christ is the giver of all good things. He is our creator and loves us with a perfect love. We believe that by seeking Him with all of our hearts and surrendering our lives to Him, we come to know Him in an intimate way. It is through this intimacy that we find our purpose, fulfillment, and everlasting joy.



Campus

Did you know there are currently 103.5 million single adults in America? That's one out of every three people in this country. That is staggering. If the harvest was ever plentiful and workers few, it surely is in the demographic of singles. There needs to be a way to reach them for Jesus Christ. As you probably know, there are very few churches with any sort of adult singles ministry. And the few that do, seem to really only scratch the surface. So what's the solution? We believe the Lord will use Echo Ministries to be that solution.


Currently, we are hosting events in various locations all around the Atlanta area instead of having a centralized location which could better serve our singles. Our long-term goal has always been to create a replicable model in other cities and areas around our nation and the world. With the amount of people attending our events, and virtually no support from local churches, we are often at the mercy of high costs, inadequate venues or inopportune times to facilitate these group environments.


So, dream with me for a moment...

What would it look like if Echo Ministries had a campus that would be a safe-haven for singles both young and old, Christian and non-Christian? Dream with me for a moment about a place that is designed where architecture and aesthetics intersect to create multiple environments around one idea, "Christ Centered Community for Single Adults." Singles need environments that are both: fun and relevant, relaxing and healthy. Christian singles need a campus that give us the opportunity to invite some of our non-believing friends to a Christ centered environment that isn't too "churchy." It's an alternative to the unhealthy and sinful lifestyle of the world.


So, what would it look like if....?


We had a really modern and large coffee house where we could hang out and do our Echo Unplugged Concerts? 

What would it look like if... we had an auditorium for speakers, worship services and could double as a movie theater?

What if we had our own classrooms where multiple Bible studies and book studies could help equip singles for good Godly marriages?

What if we had an outdoor pavilion and amphitheater where we could host dramas and concerts?

What about volley ball courts, a softball field and a basketball court?

What would it look like if... we had a large dining hall and a library, etc, etc, etc?


The sky is the limit!


You might be saying to yourself, "How in the world is this going to get accomplished?" Let me remind you what the Bible says, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26. This is how we are going to do it, with prayer, hard work, trusting in the Lord, and building in phases. The first phase is to acquire between 10 - 20 acres of property in a centralized location, with an approximate cost in the ballpark of $1,000,000. God willing, we will do this in the coming year. "Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed." Proverbs 16:3.

We are already in the process of raising funds through foundations, but we absolutely need your help. We have started a building fund which we are asking you to help support. You can donate to this fund by going to the link below and creating an account! Also, for the first time ever, you can easily create a reoccurring draft from your bank account or credit card with a few clicks of a button. LINK TO HELP FUND CAMPUS


Your support in helping us accomplish this mission will impact the lives of countless singles for eternity and create a legacy that will far outlive your own life. All you have to do is give by faith and share our vision with others.


Jesus said in Matthew 14:13-14, "And I will do whatever you ask in my name so the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it." 

Proverbs 3:5 says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight."


And that is exactly what we are going to do! We will trust in God to do miracles for His name and His glory!


Please help by donating any amount. THANK YOU!!!
