Global Sunday
Exploring the World Together: Global Sunday at EFCC
Over the past year our church community has been reflecting on what it means to live on mission—both locally and around the world. This Sunday, November 2, we invite you to join us for Global Sunday, when we’ll celebrate how God is working across nations, how lives are being changed, and how we can all take part. Whether you’ve never traveled overseas or you’ve never left Escondido, there’s a place for you in this story of hope and outreach. CLICK HERE to Learn More About Global Sunday.
🌍 What “Global Sunday” Means
Global Sunday is more than just an event—it’s an invitation to see how the gospel extends beyond our walls. On this day:
- Pastor Luke will share a message out of Ephesians 2:11-22 on “Global Family” that will talk about how God is forming a new kind of family—one that is beautifully diverse, global, eternal, and still growing as we invite others to join the story.
- You’ll experience cultures from around the world through sights, sounds and stories of what God is doing in different countries.
- After our morning services, we’ll host a Global Party in the Courtyard, where the community can engage in international flavors, testimonies, and interactive displays of mission work.
💡 Why This Matters Right Now
- Because the need is real. There are still large populations around the world who have little to no access to the gospel, and our church has committed to standing in the gap.
- Because we’re not just sent to one place—we’re sent to all people. The command to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19) still drives us today.
- Because mission changes us. When we engage with the global church, our perspective shifts—not just on “over there,” but on how we live “here” and now.
📝 What to Expect on Sunday
- Services at 9:00 am, 10:45 am, & 5:00 pm (standard schedule)
- A message tailored to Global Sunday, designed to challenge, encourage and mobilize
- Post‑service Global Party in the Courtyard following the morning services—come for the experience, stay for the community
- Opportunities to learn about our global partners, take next steps in mission, and discover how you can join in
🙏 Take the Next Step
We believe mission is for everyone—because the love of Christ knows no borders. If you’re ready to join the conversation:
- Come prepared to ask: What part of this story is mine?
- Bring a friend or family member and make this Sunday a shared experience
- Be open to how God might move in you as you engage with His global kingdom
📣 Want to Experience More?
Global Sunday is more than just one weekend—it’s a reflection of God’s heart for the world and His invitation for each of us to take part. Whether you’re curious, excited, or ready to take your next step, there’s a place for you in the story.
