Theme Verse

Matthew 22:37-40 (ESV)

And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”

Speaker

Kelly Ng

Kelly Ng is a member of New Life Fellowship Church, where he has served as an elder for the past six years and is also on the Marriage Ministry Leadership Team. These past several years, God has opened numerous doors for Kelly to speak and teach on the topic of “Emotionally Healthy Spirituality,” here locally and as far as Asia. This area of focus has transformed his life, marriage and ministry.  In addition, Kelly worked with a church plant in his earlier years, where he mainly ministered to second and third-generation Asian-Americans.

Kelly embraces his weaknesses by being true to who he is. He strives to live a life that reflects the goodness and grace of God – pointing others to see and taste that the Lord is good.  What makes Kelly’s eyes light up and bring a smile to his face—healthy church leadership, engaging conversations over a good cup of coffee, healthy marriages and relationships, the great outdoors and a good game of tennis.  But what he loves most is his wife, Shirley, whom he has been married to for 12 years and calls her “his best vacation.” (They actually met through ECBC years ago!)

Testimonies

ECBC is a great retreat to meet other believers in Christ and to meet God in a tranquil, beautiful setting. It is a place to have your soul be restored. The fellowship is always sweet and authentic.
People should go to ECBC because there are a lot of God stories that are waiting to be heard.
