The Covenant Ministerium is growing quickly as passionate and qualified individuals join our pastoral community. It is our privilege to strengthen this Evangelical Covenant Church community of vocational ministries through advocacy, endorsement, care, and formation.

VISION/MISSION
The Evangelical Covenant Church is committed to the whole mission of God – extending the whole gospel to the whole world. Through global partnerships and our global personnel, we facilitate the practice of the five mission priorities of the Evangelical Covenant Church: make and deepen disciples, start and strengthen churches, develop leaders, love mercy and do justice, and serve globally—that is, join the rest of the global church in engaging in God’s mission across cultures and around the world through:
— equipping local congregations for mission;
— training the people of God through formal and informal theological education;
— sending missionaries to strategic places;
— and cultivating partnerships with churches and organizations in strategic contexts.
