Our mission
is
to convey the gospel of Jesus Christ to others. People need to see the love shine forth that comes along with knowing Christ
personally and intimately. ECU gives encouragement in Christ through His grace. The world is in need of His refinement. Through
the study of God's word people begin to have a different attitude toward life. A new and positive outlook causes mountains
to no longer appear steep, but rather just a little higher. Life doesn't seem to be a waste of existence, but rather a gift.
Believers begin to spiritually see that our Heavenly Father loves each and every one of us.
Our Divine Design
Evergreen Christian University was designed to shine
forth sound biblical doctrine at the post-secondary level. Sound doctrine brightens the torch in your soul so that you might
shine with the certainty and the hope that we have in Christ Jesus. ECU is dedicated to all students, whatever the calling
to function in the body of Christ, whether pastoral, evangelical or Christian lay worker. We have programs that will best
fit your need to grow in the Christian faith! We are not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Messiah. It is in the
gospel that we learn the one and only way to salvation is through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. We offer innovative
Christian education. Evergreen Christian University is an umbrella affiliate under Raining Faith Ministry. Raining Faith Ministry
is dedicated to promoting quality Christian education at the post-secondary education level.

RFM
~ Full Gospel Of Christ Fellowship INC. We are a 501 (C) 3 Tax exempt non-profit organization
Evergreen
Christian University partnership with the Full Gospel Of Christ Fellowship The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is a Divinely
Ordained Institution, a spiritual organization made up of all God's children, found among many groups, fellowships, and organizations
that often overlap in their local expression. The IRS uses such terminology as the "subordinate organization" to
be "under the supervision and control" of the "parent organization." But we don't like such implications.
Jesus said, "Henceforth I call you not servants...but I have called you friends..." (John 15:15). And He said, "...all
ye are brethren" (Matthew 23:8). We consider our credential-ed ministers as teammates united in Christ.
our
affiliate organizations as units of FGCFI
your ministry as part of our outreach, and you as our representative. The
Full Gospel of Christ Fellowship, Inc., is an organization of organizations, but claims no ecclesiastical authority over its
affiliates. Worldly organizations assume the form of a pyramid of power, and each officer makes much of their own position
in the chain of command. But Jesus plainly said this kind of authority system shall not be among us (Matthew 20:25-27 and
Luke 22:25, 26). The FGCFI has no intentions of ever exercising any attributes of religious authority over any affiliated
Church or Christian ministry, so as to undermine the freedom of God's servants to carry out their work, activities, and programs
as they feel led by God. Rather, we are dedicated to upholding the uncompromising sovereignty of our Affiliate Organizations.
We dare not interfere in the affairs of our Churches, or dictate to our evangelists. The Principle Office of the FGCFI simply
serves as a tax-exempt Umbrella, a central point of reference for spiritual unity and legal identity, and offers information,
encouragement, and counsel to those who want it. We are devoted to fostering love and unity among God-called pastors and evangelists
everywhere.

Jesus Christ as servants of the Highest Lord, we are fools for Christ. "(1 Corinthians 4:10). We are fools for Christ's
sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised."
