What is the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA)?

The EFCA is an association of some 1,400 autonomous churches united by a mutual commitment to servce our Lord Jesus Christ with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and obedience to the Word of God. The EFCA was formed in 1950 by the merger of two church bodies: the Swedish Evangelical Free Church and the Norwegian-Danish Evangelical Free Church Association. Both groups were birthed in the revival movements of the late 19th-century. Today the growing ministry of the EFCA extends to some 40 nations of the world. Click here for the EFCA's website.
