GIVE TO EMBER CHURCH
Giving is a part of our worship to God. It has been said that you can tell nearly everything about a person by the way they spend their money. Whether you are tithing in obedience to Malachi 3:10 or contributing over and above your tithe as an act of sacrificial generosity, your money will help us minister God’s hope and healing to our community and beyond. We give in order to be blessed, not for fear of anything negative in our lives. We give out of gratitude and love! You can give your gift safely and securely online - this is one of the easiest ways to give to our church. Thank you.
WHY WE EXIST
We exist to call men and women to celebrate and be changed by the life, death and resurrection of Jesus and His Lordship over all of life - for the good of our city and the world.
In the gospel we meet a God who has acted decisively in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus to redeem and restore people to Himself. Jesus lives the life we could not live, dies the death that we deserve to die, and is raised from the dead and revealed to be the King over all creation. This was no arbitrary event in history; it is the decisive moment. The gospel tells the whole story of Biblical history and how God has acted decisively in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus to redeem the world for His glory. Preaching the gospel means showing how Jesus is the fulfillment and goal of every biblical text.
OUR DOCTRINE
We embrace a fundamentally evangelical and reformed identity and are thus in agreement with historic confessions such as the Nicene Creed, the Second London Baptist Confession, and the Heidelberg Catechism, as well as the affirmations and denials set forth by Together for the Gospel. Our confessional statement is adapted from the foundational documents of the Gospel Coalition (www.thegospelcoalition.org).
For a complete list of our doctrinal beliefs, please contact us and we will be sure to send it to you. If you would like to discuss any of these core beliefs, please contact us at questions@solsticechurch.org

GROWTH GROUPS
Small groups at Ember are made up of people just like you. Group members provide weekly support, study the Bible, and pray for one another.
VOLUNTEER & SERVE
We are a congregation of believers committed to sharing the message of Christ and guiding others towards faith in Him. As a church, we aim to love those in our community with the same love Christ has given to us. The work of our church is aimed at directing others towards the Savior in the hopes that they will encounter the one true God and be transformed by His gracious love for them. Through all we do, say, and preach, we pray that we will shine the light of Christ to all those we encounter.

OUR CHURCH PARTNERS
Our partnerships with different churches and organizations are united together under one vision: to bring glory to God by making disciples of Jesus Christ. We are invested, involved and connected in these relationships for the long run, learning from one another and ministering to one another. We initiate all partnerships and maintain them by a mutual agreement. Outside our partnerships, we have support relationships that allow us to resource and assist churches and organizations. These relationships are not necessarily relationally driven, formalized or holistic. They simply give us the privilege of blessing others. Learn More

KIDS MINISTRY
In our Kids Ministry, our mission is to help kids find their way back to God, connect with others, and contribute to changing the world. We believe that kids have the capacity to walk intimately with God, and we love to see them learn about Him and connect with Him through Bible stories, songs, and crafts.
WHO'S INVOLVED?
Every Sunday morning we provide a safe environment for kids from birth through fifth grade where they can learn about Jesus and connect with each other.
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our ministry, and it’s an honor to serve with each and every one of them as they love on kids each week! Every volunteer who leads in the Kids Ministry has had a background check and is committed to making the ministry a safe, Biblically relevant, and fun environment for your kids.
CHILDREN ARE A HERITAGE FROM THE LORD, OFFSPRING A REWARD FROM HIM. LIKE ARROWS IN THE HANDS OF A WARRIOR ARE CHILDREN BORN IN ONE’S YOUTH. BLESSED IS THE MAN WHOSE QUIVER IS FULL OF THEM. THEY WILL NOT BE PUT TO SHAME WHEN THEY CONTEND WITH THEIR OPPONENTS IN COURT.
Psalms 127:3-5
HOW SHOULD I PREPARE MY KIDS?
Each Sunday, you will need to check your child into our Kids Ministry. Either a wristband will be filled out by parents or parents will be asked to Check-In on the computer and print out a name tag and a claim tag will be given or printed for parents to present at Check-Out. Both formats will include your child’s name as well as information regarding specific allergies. From there you will walk them to their age-specific classroom. When you return at the end of service you will Check-Out your child by signing them out or checking them out on the computer and then handing the claim tag to the teacher.
Thank you so much for helping us as we strive to make our Kids Ministry a safe environment for your kids to learn about God.

GIVE TO EMBER CHURCH
None of the work we do at our church would be possible without God moving the hearts of our people to give. Your generosity helps create a church where people feel welcomed, led, and loved—a place where life-changing stories are being written every week. On behalf of those stories, thank you for giving from your heart.
We give in order to be blessed, not for fear of anything negative in our lives. We give out of gratitude and love! You can give your gift safely and securely online - this is one of the easiest ways to give to our church. Thank you.
WHY GIVE?
As people of God we give because God has given so much to us. God doesn't need our money, but he does want what it represents: our purposes, passions, and priorities. We give to make a Kingdom impact locally in San Diego, across the country, as well as globally through mission efforts. We give to increase the Kingdom through our generosity so that others may know Jesus better!
LOCALLY
Ember believes in creating opportunities to serve and bless our local San Diego community. 50% of your financial contributions stay in the area, enabling us to do the work that God has called us to in our local community.
We have specific ministries we support, as well as our own initiatives that we spend your generous donations on.
GLOBALL
When Jesus commissioned his disciples before His ascension, He said, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."
At Ember, we take this command of making disciples in all nations very seriously, which leads us to giving 50% of your tithe and offerings to work God is doing globally. We have missionaries sent from Ember, as well as Global Partnerships living out the Great Commission all over the world.
