The Evangelical Christian Church in Canada (Christian Disciples) is a community of believers who through baptism by faith in Jesus Christ are bound by covenant to God and to one another. Christian Disciples draw their inspiration from the truth in scripture through the leading of the Holy Spirit, celebrating around the Lord's Table the life, death, and resurrection, and continuing presence of Christ. We proclaim the good news of salvation. We claim as our particular witness the quest for Christian unity as a sign of God's love for the church and our love to one another. While stressing freedom and diversity under God, we believe that integrity and accountability are inseparable; we witness and serve among the whole human race in the interest of peace, justice, mercy, and kindness.
