What is Evangelical Free?
The Evangelical Free Church of America is an association of
some 1,250 autonomous churches united by a mutual commitment
to serve our Lord Jesus Christ with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit and obedience to the Word of God. We are committed to
cooperate with one another in ministry and fellowship as we seek
to fulfill the Great Commission which Christ has entrusted to
His Church. The growing ministry of the EFCA currently extends
to some 40 countries of the world.
The term Evangelical refers to our commitment
to the proclamation of the Gospel, the good news of God's love
and salvation, and to the authority of Scriptures as God's Word
and the only safe and sufficient guide to faith and practice.
The term Free refers to our form of church
government as being congregational. Evangelical Free Churches
depend upon the active participation of lay people in the decisions
and directions of the local church.
