Ministry costs money. 

CoastEC is funded solely by God’s people and we’re thankful for their generosity and sacrifice! We will use every dollar as wisely as we can, for the greatest possible impact.

If you’ve been transformed by the love of God, and want others to know his grace too, you can support our ministries financially in a number of ways (see below)

Thanks for your support! Your gift will change people’s lives.
