MULFORD
EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH
563-263-7489
Mulford Evangelical Free Church has a 148 year heritage of preaching the Gospel, teaching the Bible, worshiping the Lord, and celebrating Christian community. We have always had a passion for caring about children, sending missionaries, and applying the Bible to everyday life.
While we have a long history, we
are not living in the past. Our desire
is to minister in our community in the present.
We continually ask ourselves, “How can we best serve our Lord Jesus
Christ now—and prepare for a future ministry?”
We are not perfect, but we keep
coming back to our Biblical
distinctives.
THE EVANGELICAL FREE
CHURCH OF AMERICA
Mulford Evangelical Free Church is a member in the Evangelical Free Church of America, a fellowship of over 1300 churches across the country. We are united by a commitment to the same beliefs, distinctives, and goals.
Together these churches support
a seminary, Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School, and two colleges, Trinity
International University and Trinity Western
University, and send out over 600 missionaries to over 43 different countries,
and provide a variety of resources to local churches.
MULFORD’S VISION
“The church is a community of believers with a mission from God.”
Mulford Evangelical Free Church
is a congregation seeking to grow through its commitment to love the Lord our
God and to love our neighbor as well.
Mulford Evangelical Free Church
seeks to grow in worship by loving the Father as Jesus does, in discipleship by
loving the Word as Jesus does, in fellowship by loving believers as Jesus does,
and in outreach by loving the lost as Jesus does.
CHURCH MINISTRIES
Our children’s ministries include Sunday School and AWANA Clubs. Our name comes from Alice Mulford, an early teacher and superintendent of the Sunday School.
We provide activities for teenagers during the Sunday School hour and on Sunday evenings, plus a variety of socials, recreational activities, conferences, and mission trips.
Women gather for Bible studies, mentoring, prayer, as well as for conferences and retreats.
Men’s meetings are for prayer, spiritual growth, recreation, and hobbies, or work projects.
