ECFA's Annual Love In Action Dinner

Evangelical Child and Family Agency (ECFA) is an evangelical Christian social services agency. They provide many services, including adoption, pregnancy counseling and care, family counseling, and child welfare services, which include foster care and family preservation. Their highly trained staff is supported by numerous volunteers who contribute many hours to make their success possible.

The mission of Evangelical Child and Family Agency is to protect and nurture abused, neglected and dependent children, and strengthen the quality of life for individuals and families. They do this by providing quality social services from a biblical perspective.

I invite you to support the work of ECFA by attending their 60th annual Love In Action Dinner featuring Mike Breaux of Heartland Community Church and singer Babbie Mason. The event will take place on May 7, 2010, 7:00 pm at the Oakbrook Marriott.

Dinner is complimentary, but reservations are required (age 16 and over, please). An offering will be received to help underwrite ECFA’s minist

ry services.

If you would like to be a part of the Love In Action Dinner, call ECFA at 630-653-6400 and ask for Rita or send an e-mail to mail@evancfa.org Attn: Rita Re: Love In Action Dinner.
