East Cleveland Fellowship
Who We Are
East Cleveland Fellowship (ECF) is a community of believers in Jesus Christ from many churches in the area, united in serving the East Cleveland neighborhood with the purpose of seeing hope and restoration of lives in our community and beyond.
As a missional outreach of Living Stones Church, we are grateful for their prayerful support and leadership, and we serve under their oversight and guidance as we seek to be faithful to the work God has entrusted to us.
Our Mission
Our mission is to serve East Cleveland by proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed, building relationships within the neighborhood, and partnering with local churches and community organizations to meet practical needs with compassion and dignity.
Through worship, prayer, discipleship, and community outreach, we seek to create a welcoming spiritual home where lives are nurtured, hope is restored, and God’s love is made visible in tangible ways.
Our Vision
"Our vision, rooted in Luke 4:18–19, is to see East Cleveland transformed by the gospel of Jesus Christ — where the poor hear good news, the brokenhearted find healing, the captives experience freedom, and lives are restored through the power of God."

Who Is Welcome?
Everyone is welcome at East Cleveland Fellowship. We welcome people of every background, culture, race, age, socioeconomic status, and life experience. Whether you are exploring faith for the first time, returning after a long absence, or have walked with Jesus for many years, you are welcome here.
Everything we do is centered on Jesus Christ. We believe that He invites us to come as we are—broken, searching, hopeful, or weary—and that through His grace, He brings transformation, healing, and new life.
As a community, we walk together in discipleship, learning to follow Jesus in everyday life. Discipleship at ECF is a relational journey of growing in faith, love, obedience, and service, led by the Holy Spirit and grounded in Scripture.
"No one is expected to have it all together. We come as we are, and we look to God’s grace to do the work of renewal in our lives as we trust and follow Him."
