Six central affirmations: We believe in...

  5. a conscious dependence on the Holy Spirit, and
  6. the reality of freedom in Christ.​
Our roots and vision...
  • The Evangelical Covenant Church is a rapidly growing multiethnic denomination in the United States and Canada with ministries on five continents of the world. 
  • Founded in 1885 by Swedish immigrants, the ECC values the Bible as the word of God, the gift of God’s grace and ever-deepening spiritual life that comes through a faith with Jesus Christ, the importance of extending God’s love and compassion to a hurting world, and the strength that comes from unity within diversity.
