ECO - Our Denomination
ECO, "A Covenant Order of Evangelical Presbyterians," is a new and vital denomination that is closely aligned with our theology, vision, and culture as a church, where we believe we can flourish as we continue to pursue our vision to be “A multicultural family, growing in faith, connecting people with Christ.”
ECO was established in January 2012 as an outgrowth of the Fellowship of Presbyterians. ECO is both reformed and evangelical in its theology. We uphold the sanctity of life from conception until natural death, and upholds biblical sexual purity.
ECO is committed to growing and planting flourishing churches that make disciples of Jesus Christ. The name “Covenant Order of Evangelical Presbyterians” and the acronym “ECO” reflect this theological and relational commitment:
"The acronym ECO speaks to our commitment to strengthen the “ecosystems” of local churches, providing the resources needed to grow, thrive, and reproduce. Just as earthly ecosystems draw richness from the right kind of diversity, ECO is committed to unleashing the ministry gifts of women, men, young leaders, and every ethnicity. ECO’s name also draws from the Greek term oikos, meaning ‘household,’ used in the Bible to reference the network of relationships that nurture an individual.
