Covenant Evangelical Free Church started in 1978 as a church plant named Emmanuel Christian Fellowship (ECF) with 17 pioneer members.[3]

Derivation of church name
  • Covenant: The Covenant points to God's unfailing promise of salvation and blessing for mankind, fulfilled in Christ.
  • Evangelical: This reflects CEFC's commitment to the gospel and to the preaching of the same for salvation. An evangelical agrees to the virgin birth, the resurrection of Christ and justification by faith, and is devoted to the inspired Word of God.
  • Free: Each congregation of the Evangelical Free Church denomination has a right, under God, to govern its own affairs.
  • Church: CEFC is a community of believers united in Christ by His Spirit.
