How We Engage in God’s Mission
The Evangelical Covenant Church is committed to the whole mission of God—extending the whole gospel to the whole world. Through sending of personnel, training people through theological education, equipping local congregations, and cultivating global partnerships we serve globally in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East North Africa.
Global Personnel
We support Global Personnel in more than 63 countries to serve alongside local partners to form and equip communities of Christ-followers through culturally relevant evangelism and transformational ministries that seek to address the spiritual, social, emotional, mental, physical, and justice needs of the community demonstrating the whole Gospel.
Covenant Kids Congo
Covenant Kids Congo, a partnership with the Covenant in the U.S. and Canada, the Covenant Church of Congo, and World Vision, began in 2012 as a response to the needs of children in the Democratic Republic of Congo. We continue to work for sustainable community development and clean water, education, health, agriculture, economic development, and advocacy.

Covenant World Relief & Development works through local partners around the world to reduce human suffering for the most vulnerable people and to support healthy communities.
