Mission

The mission of the Edgewood Ministerial Association is to bring together the Faith Community of the Edgewood School District by uniting Christians through worship, events, and service to others; share the truths of the Bible and the good news of Jesus Christ.

The Edgewood Ministerial Association (EMA) was formed in 1970 when the Trenton and Seven Mile school districts merged and became the Edgewood School District. It became incorporated as a nonprofit in 1998.
