Our
Mission
This Christian fellowship exists to
love and glorify God, to share His grace through Jesus Christ
with the people of Searcy and White County and all nations,
to love, edify and encourage one another towards a mature covenant
relationship with God and to meet the needs of the community
through loving fellowship and service.
Our Vision
Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord
your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with
all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
" - Matthew 22:37-39
The vision of the
Covenant Fellowship Church will be fulfilled by:
- Lifting Jesus up through Spirit-filled
lives, love for one another and service to the community.
- Communicating God's saving grace
to those who do not know Him in such a way they will desire
a covenant relationship with Him.
- Loving, encouraging and edifying
one another as we grow into a mature covenant relationship
with God and a fellowship with Jesus Christ our Lord.
- Providing a warm and accepting fellowship
where everyone feels welcome and relationships can be established
and strengthened through unconditional love.
- Glorifying God through Spirit-filled
worship assemblies which are celebrative, heart-felt expressions
of reverence, awe, praise, joy and devotion to Him, edifying
to believers and convicting to the unbelievers.
- Upholding the Bible as God's inspired
word and His Son Jesus as the author of our salvation.
Our Foundation
Consequently, you are no longer foreigners
and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members
of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles
and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.
In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become
a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being built
together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.

Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them
to obey everything I have commanded you. - Matthew 28:19-20
