The Eastern Korean Council (EKC) is a fellowship of Korean ministry pastors from Classis Hudson and Classis Hackensack that gather regularly to pray, support and encourage one another. Through book studies and continuing education, this fellowship exists to continue to better equip pastors to serve the local church in Greater New York region and beyond well. On October 22, EKC gathered to welcome Rev. Kwon Do Lee who was called by Love Global Vision to plant Vertical Church in NYC. The EKC also recognized Rev.
