Support of Missions
From the very beginning of the Covenant Church, missions was a very important part of the denomination. The first name given to these early converts was Mission Friends and then it was changed to Evangelical Mission Covenant and more recently to Evangelical Covenant Church of America. Today we as a church send a portion of our budget that goes to help support our career, short-term, and project missionaries in 20 countries. We also support Covenant World Relief, which works in disaster relief and sustainable development.
African Inland Mission
Besides our own Covenant missions, the members of Wiley Heights Covenant Church also support
missionaries from Africa Inland Mission (AIM), who have roots in Wiley Heights
AIM is a nondenominational Christian missionary sending agency serving primarily in Africa and the islands of the Indian Ocean. AIM was founded in 1895 and currently has more than 850 missionaries.
