Welcome to Covenant Cares
CovenantCares is your place to engage and connect with God’s work in the world through the Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC).
The book of Ecclesiastes says a cord of three strands is not easily broken. We are indeed a cord of three strands: more than 875 local congregations, our 11 regional conferences, and the Covenant as a whole. We commit to working together, believing that a hopeful and fruitful future awaits our communities and our world.
We invite you into this partnership as we engage in God’s ongoing work in the world through the gifts in this guide. When you purchase a CovenantCares gift, you partner with our brothers and sisters throughout the Covenant to make a significant impact. We do together what we cannot do alone.
We are Covenant.
We have five main categories reflecting the five mission priorities of the Evangelical Covenant Church.
Select a category below to learn how you can connect with each one:
Develop Leaders
We are dedicated to serving Covenant ministers through advocacy, endorsement, care, and formation. Our partnerships with conferences and churches enable us to provide educational opportunities, quality care, and responsiveness to our clergy.
Make and Deepen Disciples
Our vision is to mobilize a multiethnic movement of disciples who make disciples of all ages. Make and Deepen Disciples helps Covenanters of all ages and backgrounds navigate the complete journey of faith.
Love Mercy Do Justice
We are committed to joining God to make things right in our broken world. Love Mercy Do Justice seeks to resource and equip the local church in its call to love, serve, and work together with people at the margins toward holistic individual, family, and community transformation.
Start and Strengthen Churches
Our vision is to see every Covenant congregation become a healthy, missional church that plants healthy, missional churches. By healthy we mean pursuing Christ, and by missional we mean pursuing Christ’s priorities in the world. We are committed to expanding our growth trajectory by both supporting established churches and planting new churches.
Serve Globally
We are committed to the whole mission of God—extending the whole gospel to the whole world. Through global partnerships and Covenant global personnel, we make and deepen disciples, start and strengthen churches, develop leaders, love mercy and do justice, and serve globally across cultures and around the world.
