The ECO National Gathering is for pastors, elder, lay leaders, spouses, seminarians and students, staff teams, covenant partners and those interested in learning more about ECO. This gathering is beneficial for your entire leadership team and anyone involved in your local church. There is an immense opportunity for growth and bonding when you come to the gathering with others from your congregation! Take free time during the week to plan and pray, get to know others serving in similar church settings, or just hang out, have fun and make memories together!

Give to Our Presbytery
Your financial contribution assists presbyteries in the ongoing work of supporting local ECO churches and pastors. With your donation, you are directly contributing to the strength and resilience of our presbyteries, ensuring they can continue to serve and uplift pastors, churches, church leaders, students and communities in need.
Give to ECO
ECO is committed to maintaining low administrative costs and only requiring 1% of a congregation’s annual budgeted expenses toward local and national ECO support. Your gift will resource foundational costs associated with ECO, as well as support special areas such as church planting, leadership development, and global missions.
