Episcopal City Mission
Episcopal City Mission (ECM) is a ministry providing hope and healing to youth in detention centers in St. Louis City and County. Chaplains offer ecumenical spiritual programs, guidance and support, and a ministry of presence to youth in the juvenile justice system.
Bishop Deon Johnson serves as the President of Board of this non-profit organization. Several diocesan clergy and lay members serve in different positions with ECM. Parishes and individuals from throughout our diocese support this ministry by volunteering their time at special events, providing special parties and holiday gifts, and contributing financially.
At ECM, we believe:
We believe that all children
deserve a second chance
We believe in the healing
promise of God’s presence
We believe in providing a safe
environment, free from judgment
We believe children
aren’t disposable and are
worth our time and attention
We believe the children
we serve are more than the
worst thing they have done
We believe being there,
providing a ministry of
presence, is healing
We believe the calming
presence of our chaplains
reassures the children
that someone cares about
their spiritual well-being
