Ministries
No matter your gifts, passions, or season of life — there's a place for you to belong, grow, and serve.
Ministry Built for Growth
At ERC Family, ministry is structured for effectiveness and growth. Our model is rooted in Scripture — from the home cell (a small gathering of around 12 people, modeled on Acts 2:40–47) to sections and departments that coordinate the work of God across the church.
Every member has a place to belong, grow, and serve. Whether you join a home cell, a commission, or a ministry department — you are part of one family on one mission.
Home Cell
~12 people · midweek · Bible study, prayer & fellowship
Commission
People sharing the same calling — worship, protocol, media, intercession
Department
Commissions and cells coordinated under ordained leadership
