- Prepare to bring your mask. Anyone attending service will be required to wear their mask while in the building and during the singing portions for the outdoor service.
- (Indoor Service) Prepare to arrive 15-20 minutes early for temperature screening. To help us get accurate readings with our laser thermometer, please avoid drinking hot or cold drinks one hour before you are screened.
- Park every other space. You will enter through the gym doors (2 doors on the left) where we will perform temperature checks and screening.
- Follow instructions regarding our uni-directional traffic flow in the church, our 6 ft physical distancing, and our assigned seating in the sanctuary.

Scripture Journal Plans for 2021 If you've been enjoying the ESV Scripture Journal and want to continue, listed below are clickable links to order the next five scipture journals from Christianbook.com. The cost will be about $22 for all five journals (about $30 total with taxes and shipping). You may want to consider bundling with your GC members! Another option is to use a notebook and journal along the books of the Bible. The church will be providing special bookmarks with the schedule of readings for each book. Information on how to get a bookmark will be provided soon.
Bible Reading Plan Bookmarks for Psalms:
Bookmarks can be picked up at church. They will be in a bin placed right in front of the main door (parking lot side) of the EC Building.
Acts 8:4 Forum We’ve heard a lot during this past Missions Month about ways of bringing our passions, experience, and skills into communities that know little or nothing about Christ. Are you curious and want to explore the possibilities? This sign-up is only for gauging interest in joining an Acts 8:4 Forum. The forum would be a place where you can meet (zoom for now) to learn more, network, and explore what God may have for you and your job skills and passions. If you have further questions, please contact: TK.Watanabe@odpcec.org

Bible Reading Plan: 2021 This past year, we read through Genesis to Revelation and saw the Bible as one story, interwoven with many stories, but ultimately about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This year, we want to read the Bible at a slower pace, encouraging you to meditate upon Scripture, to journal your responses to God's word, and to write down your prayers.
Please click this link to learn how.
