We Believe

 What We Believe

 

  The Scriptures We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God.
  The Godhead We believe that there is one God, existing eternally in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  Jesus Christ We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, sacrificial death, bodily resurrection, and ascension.
  Salvation We believe in eternal salvation by faith in Jesus Christ.
  Second Advent We believe that Jesus will come again and that both the saved and the lost will be resurrected
  Purpose of the Church We believe that the purpose of the church is to glorify God and to minister to each other and to the lost through worship, fellowship, discipleship, service, and evangelism.

 

Senior Pastor

Our Senior Pastor:

Pastor Steve Van Vleck, the son of apple orchardists, was raised in the incomparably beautiful Yakima Valley in central Washington. As a result of his mother's conversion and influence when he was a teenager, Steve accepted the Lord as his Savior and shortly thereafter attended Biola College in La Mirada, California, where he graduated with a BA degree. He subsequently attended Western Seminary in Portland, Oregon, and graduated with a Master of Divinity degree in 1979. After serving as Associate Pastor at Minnehaha Community Church in Vancouver, Washington, for six and one-half years, he accepted the position of Pastor at Evergreen Community Church in January of 1986.

   

Our Vision

 Our Vision Statement 

Vision is not about what is. Vision is about God-inspired dreams of what could be ... and what must be! It is a picture of the future Evergreen as God intends it to be. It describes God's plans which are unique to Evergreen, our unique role in fulfilling the mission of the global church and its purposes here in the Ferndale area.

In this day and age when families are often far-flung and not available to help with the daily challenges of life, we believe that God is calling Evergreen to be a functional family for the people in our community. We envision Evergreen as a church welcoming all generations.

We envision a family passionate about our relationship with God, relying on prayer and the study of His Word both individually and corporately to grow in that relationship. We will promote worship gatherings and other events that are uplifting, instructive, memorable, relevant, fun, and welcoming to all.

We envision Evergreen becoming a family made up of small growth groups. We will tirelessly and proactively work to make this happen so that everyone is plugged into such a group, being ministered to, and ministering to others, on a personal level.

We envision Evergreen becoming externally focused, proactively identifying the needs of the community outside our family, doing our best to meet those needs as God enables us, and sharing the good news of Christ with all people of all ages in Ferndale and the surrounding area with an emphasis on those who are not regularly attending any church, baptizing and discipling numerous new believers every year. God is also calling us to go beyond Ferndale, sending out short and long-term individuals and groups, and supporting missionaries around the world.

We envision this family serving in teams and giving everyone a sense of belonging and fulfillment. We will be proactive in helping everyone to identify and develop their spiritual gifts, and in creating opportunities for the use of these gifts, helping everyone to become all that God designed them to be. We will continuously train ourselves, young and old, to take on leadership roles of increasing responsibility, not in isolation, but taking advantage of expertise already gained by others.

This is our dream---our vision about what could be!

2010 Sermon's

... for taking the time to find out about Evergreen Community Church

Evergreen is an independent, non-denominational, Bible-teaching church which attempts to minister to the needs of both families and singles of all ages. One of our goals is to disciple each believer to discover and fulfill their individual role in the body of Christ. We are constantly growing and learning how to best love and care for each other

Whatever brought you to Evergreen, we're glad you came. And, if this is where you're led by God, we would be honored to become your church home and your church family.

Our History:

We began as a Sunday school at our present location on March 17, 1935. Thirty-four people were in attendance on that Sunday morning. Sixteen years later, the school was incorporated as Evergreen Community Church. Today, we are a congregation of 100 to 150 attendees, with a distinctly unpretentious, family atmosphere.

 the Statement
the Mission of the Global Church 

The mission of the global church is summarized in the "great commission" and the "great commandment"; go out into your own neighborhood and to the rest of the world, being witnesses to the good news of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Help people to become students and followers of God, baptizing them, and teaching them to do all that Jesus taught us, the foremost of which is to love God and to love, or take care of, one another.
