First Covenant Church Information

The Evangelical Covenant Church is a multi-ethnic denomination of more than 700 churches in the United States and Canada. It was founded by Swedish immigrants in 1885 as a voluntary covenant of churches committed to working together to share the Good News of Jesus Christ. Covenant churches emphasize the Bible's witness to new life in Jesus Christ expressed in a day to day walk with the Lord. We exist as a denomination because we can do more together than we can separately. What we believe: 1. The centrality of the Word of God. 2. The necessity of the new birth in Christ. 3. The church as a fellowship of believers. 4. A conscious dependence on the Holy Spirit. 5. The reality of freedom in Christ.
