The IECCA is more like a team than an institution, as a team works together for a common goal ... in this case, in order to seek and save the lost, thus fulfilling the Great Commission. The members of a team both give to and receive from the benefits of their commitment to the team. The members of the IECCA are cooperative in nature, demonstrating unity in the faith.

Many local churches and ministries have adopted their own mission statements to articulate their local ministry goals, but the following statement is a summary of concepts that guide the overall ministry of the IECCA:

“The IECCA is committed to fostering cooperation, unity, mutual support, resources and training among people of like precious faith, while effectively communicating the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the world, thus fulfilling the Great Commission of Christ”

Actively pursuing a vision that includes spreading the gospel throughout the whole world is not only distinct to the IECCA, but a commandment of Christ that we take very seriously and expect every single member, whether it be an individual, church or ministry. The world includes across the street, around the state and throughout the U.S... and unto the “uttermost”.

If you are an “affiliated” church or ministry, you are free to use the name of the IECCA and official Logo within your descriptive literature, signage, etc as you see fit. It is not required, but left to your decision as you remain autonomous.

There is of course mutual accountability among all members of the IECCA, but there is also a genuine trust relationship that is carefully respected. You, your church or ministry are ultimately responsible for its integrity, honesty and faithfulness to biblical truth.

On the contrary, you are given a strong commission to be free, creative and aggressive for dynamic, outreaching ministry. Instead of control, you are unleashed to adapt the methods you need to be a culturally relevant ministry and or church. The IECCA will in no way restrict or hinder you as you fulfill the Great Commission.
