Christian Singles 20's, 30's & 40's

**SIGN UP LINK WILL OPEN ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25TH AT 9PM**

Six Weeks. One Table. Real Community. Deeper Faith.

Sometimes the best conversations about faith don’t happen in a church building—they happen around a dinner table.
Dinner & Discipleship is your opportunity to experience Echo in a smaller, more personal way. For six weeks, you’ll gather with the same group of people in your area to share a meal, build genuine friendships, watch a thought-provoking devotional, and talk honestly about what it means to follow Jesus in everyday life.

Whether you’ve been part of Echo for years or you’re brand new, there’s a seat at the table for you.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Dinner & Fellowship — Relax, eat together, and get to know one another.
Biblical Discipleship — Watch and discuss devotionals designed to deepen your relationship with Jesus.
Real Conversation — Go beyond surface-level small talk and encourage one another in your walk with God.
Genuine Community — Spend six weeks with the same small group and build relationships that can continue long after Dinner & Discipleship ends.

SPACE IS LIMITED!
To keep the groups personal and conversational, each group is limited to approximately 12 people. Please register for only ONE group.
Most groups begin the week of October 11, 2026 and meet weekly for six weeks. Dates and times vary by location, so please carefully review your group before registering.

Young legs vs. seasoned wisdom… who takes the win?

Echo Next Gen & PRIME are stepping up to the plate against the “OG Echo” crew in a showdown you don’t want to miss. It’s energy vs. experience… speed vs. strategy… enthusiasm vs. wisdom. The future vs. the foundation.
One side may have youth… But the other has been around long enough to know how to win.

Come ready to laugh, compete, and connect. Whether you’re swinging for the fences or just cheering from the sidelines, this is going to be a blast.
Look for "ECHO SIGNS" and follow them to field number 7!
*Weather permitting*

We will have a short devotional before the game.
