Our Church

Good Shepherd Covenant Church is a fellowship of those who are discovering together the joy of God's love. Entrusting ourselves to our Creator as He has shown Himself in Jesus Christ, we are finding that God gives our lives meaning, purpose, and direction.

As a part of a unique denominational family called the Evangelical Covenant Church, we have no creed but the Bible itself and no defining commitment other than to Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

We gather as a whole for worship and in smaller groups for Bible study and various programs designed to help us grow in Christlikeness of character: love, faithfulness, graciousness.

There is a place for you in the heart of God and in the family of the Good Shepherd's Covenant Church!

The Evangelical Covenant Church

The Evangelical Covenant Church, our denominational home, has grown out of Scandinavian Lutheran roots. The Covenant was born in Chicago in 1885 when a group of small congregations made a covenant to support and encourage one another. Most of the early Covenanters were Lutheran Pietists, which means they shared two simple commitments, to be devoted to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and to be always attentive to the Bible as the Word of God.

To this day we have no creed for formal statement of faith, which helps us to be open to and respectful of a wide variety of fellowships seeking to honor Jesus Christ. We still live by the keynote message at our 1885 founding conference: "I am the friend of all those who fear God" (Psalm 119:63).
