What is the Season of Invitation?

For the month of October, the community at East Shore are focusing our energies more than ever on inviting our friends and neighbors from our surrounding communities, our personal networks, and our workplaces into our beloved fellowship.

You Belong Here!

We want you, the visitor, to know that you are welcome here at East Shore.
