In January, we began the process of revamping the HEA website, thanks to a generous donation from the Michaud family. Completing a new website was one of our goals outlined in our 2025 strategic plan. Working with Addicott Web, the site was redesigned to improve user experience, optimize the usage for mobile devices, and improve general functionality. It is cleaner, more polished, and filled with pictures of our vibrant congregation as well as all the information we seek for services, events, and more.
Some of the new features include an accessibility icon that will enable all to partake in using the web, a color coded calendar to easily find what you are looking for; a livestream button on the top to allow easy access to our services and buttons that will be used for important information to be shared for various holidays, member login and donations.
We are aware there may be some hiccups, so pleaselet us knowif you experience any difficulties.

Need Office Space?
