We believe God created a good
world and humans to represent him and
relate to him on earth. Humanity rebelled
against God and spoiled our relationship
to him, each other, our world and ourselves.
The Bible is the record of God's unfolding
promise to set it all straight through
one man. That man is Jesus, God's own
son, who came to show us what God is
really like and what he wants us to
become. He said he came so we could
have abundant life and that he came
to destroy the enemy who wants to steal
that life from us. Jesus died on a
Roman cross to take all the evil and
sin of the world upon himself and destroy
its power and pay its penalty. He rose
from the dead to break the power of
death, ascended into heaven and gave
his Spirit and authority to his people
to continue his work on earth. He will
return one day to finish the job and
restore everything in heaven and earth.
Our job as the church is to pray for
and implement what he has already achieved
on earth as it is in heaven.
We are affiliated with the Evangelical
Covenant Church,
The Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC)
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 the comes from unity
within diversity. Find out more at
