My name is Roy Williams and I serve in Immanuel Fellowship in the CEEC. Mine is a ministry of encouragement and exhortation referred to as the Ministry of Saint Barnabas. Our ministry is to the oppressed, the downtrodden and the unloved.
Below and on the rest of this site, you will find what we believe and why we believe it. If you have any questions, statements or apologetics please write me at [email protected].

The Church of the Holy Spirit of the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churchs is charismatic, sacremental, liturgical, apostolic and evangelical. We affirm the essentials of the faith as revealed in the Apostle�s Creed, the Nicene Creed, the 39 Articles and the Lambeth Quadrilateral/II. We affirm the Baltimore Declaration and the Chicago Call. We conform to the Book of Common Prayer, while encouraging flexibility in liturgical services.
Below are The Doctrinal Essentials of the CEEC.
- Salvation is wholly dependent upon the work of God's unmerited favor and graciousness.
- The Christian's mission is to follow the Great Commandment (Mark 12:29�31) and to fulfill the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19�20).
- Jesus Christ is the only Way to salvation, the only Truth and the only Life on whom people may put their trust and obtain eternal life. Only those who receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord become children of God. As His children we are called to renounce any and all beliefs and activities which teach doctrines contrary to the Word of God.
- The primary mission of the Church is to reach unbelievers and the unchurched, introduce them to a personal and life�changing relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and provide the contexts necessary to strengthen the faith and walk of children, young people and adults.
- The Christian life is marked by the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace patience, kindness, gentleness and self�control. Self�control includes fidelity in marriage, abstinence from any homosexual activity and continence outside the bonds of marriage.
- God has entrusted to us the stewardship of creation and the protection and validation of the sanctity of all forms of human life, from conception to the grave.
- Corporate worship is characterized by Holy Spirit led, decent and orderly liturgy which reflects a balance between verbal proclamation of the Word and visual demonstration through the sacrements, including Baptism and Communion.
