    A Place Called Home
    Nov 24 2024
    Every Christmas the words of Bing Crosby ring in our ears, “I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love, even more than I usually do. And although I know it's a long road back, I promise you, I'll be home for Christmas.” We all have a longing for a place called home. But where is it and how do we get there? This Christmas season we will be reminded that Jesus came to earth as the light that shows us the way home.

    Kim Jackson is the Executive Director of Elder Orphan Care.

    God brought Elder Orphan Care into existence through a unique set of divinely inspired circumstances.

    In America, Kim Jackson was praying for a new adventure.

    In Romania, Viorel and Florica Pasca were not!

    But when they viewed a newscast reporting that two people, elderly and homeless, had frozen to death on the streets of a nearby city, they took action by welcoming two older women to live in their spare room.

    God used several people to bring Kim and the Pascas together in 2011. Elder Orphan Care was birthed with our partnership with Viorel and Florica who were then caring for "only" 64 older adults! Since then the Pascas have rescued nearly 3000 older adults in Romania who would otherwise be homeless and currently care for over 400. Over the years and thanks to our generous donors EOC was able to help fund the construction of two care homes, housing for volunteers and a multipurpose building. But far beyond that our teams built hundreds of treasured relationships with the people in those buildings as we visited each and every individual and shared both presents and our presence with them. EOC partnered with the Pascas for 13 year, through 2024.

    In 2017 we felt compelled to "look in our own backyard" and under the direction of Tammy Blackburn, former EOC board member turned staff person, we began caring for older adults in need in our home area of Cabarrus and Rowan counties in North Carolina who wish to age in their own homes. We enjoy partnering with other local senior-serving organizations to provide help and hope in a variety of ways to our older neighbors.

    Jesus’ Response to Political Chaos
    Nov 3 2024
    As we lead up to the next election in the United States, how do we hold our convictions while fostering connected relationships in a culture that often celebrates and even encourages outrage and division? Join us for our upcoming sermon series, "Outrage Olympics," where we’ll explore biblical principles calling us to listen to those we disagree with, seek understanding and offer compassion in the face of conflict. Let’s break free from the cycle of outrage and create a community grounded in grace and empathy!
