Our Vision

The EFCC desires to be a unified family of churches and individuals with Christ like leaders who live out the Free Church motto as we join His redemptive work in every part of Canada and the world.

Our Purpose

We exist to share Jesus and join Him in His work of transforming lives.

This unity of purpose is then lived out through the shared ethos that directs how we serve together, treat each other, and stand as a testimony to the world. That ethos is best summarized in our Statement of Character and Calling.
