Mission & Vision

We join God in God’s mission to see more disciples among more populations in a more caring and just world.

The Evangelical Covenant Church envisions living into God’s kingdom through a prayerful, multiethnic, intergenerational movement of churches, served by women and men striving to love and follow in the way of Jesus by loving our neighbors as Jesus loves us.

We strengthen the community of vocational ministers through advocacy, endorsement, credentialing, care, and formation.

Serve Locally

We start, empower, and equip churches to grow as communities of disciples who make disciples, fostering justice and compassion to uplift and serve those around them.

We join the global Church through global partnerships and sending global personnel to engage in God’s mission across cultures and around the world.

Prior to moving to the USA, I was a professor at the National University of Colombia and served with the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students in Colombia for 16 years. Starting in 2001, I served as InterVarsity National Staff in the USA. I have a master’s degree in Christian Ministries, and I serve in Spiritual Direction to those who want to be fully present and available to God and receive His grace over them. My joy is to see professors and college students coming to know Jesus and being transformed into people that bring the good news of righteousness and justice to others.
