What a beautiful and spirit-filled time at the 2026 ESCO District Gathering! 💛

This year’s theme, “God Restores My Soul,” was truly felt throughout the entire gathering—bringing renewal, connection, and encouragement to all who attended.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came and made this time so meaningful. We are especially grateful to our incredible host, Pastor Wacker, for the warm welcome and hospitality.

We were blessed by the inspiring leadership and presence of Bishop Kristin Stoneking, along with the meaningful contributions from Rev Travis Walker and our District Superintendent Bun Koo Lee.

A special highlight was the engaging AI workshop led by Jeremy Scott—such a timely and insightful experience for all of us!

We also extend our appreciation to Mission Springs Catering for the delicious meal, and to Jannet Castro our District Administrator for all the support behind the scenes.

Grateful for a day of renewal, fellowship, and inspiration. Truly, God restores our souls. 🙏✨

Join us for our ESCO Webinar on March 27th at 6:30pm

"People for Property" with Matt Weeber, MSC Chancellor

Many of our congregations have facilities that can help pay for themselves. But we don’t always know what may be involved in doing this the right way. Are there tax implications? What about liability insurance? How do we figure out what to charge for rent? If we call it a “donation” does it change anything? These are just a few of the questions we hear regularly. This webinar will address these and other questions you may have.
