About ECCN

Evangelical Congregational church of Nepal (ECCN)

The Evangelical Congregational Churches of Nepal (ECCN) is a Christ-centered organization headquartered in Dharan, Nepal. Our ministry is guided by one simple mission: To know Him and to make Him known. Through the vision of Rev. Th. Janga, ECCN faithfully exists to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, plant healthy churches, equip faithful leaders, and serve communities across Nepal.

According to Nepal’s 2021 National Census, Christians make up only 1.76% of the country’s population. In a nation where following Christ often comes with opposition, rejection, and persecution, we remain committed to sharing the hope of the Gospel. We believe that every person deserves the opportunity to hear about Jesus, regardless of the cost.

“Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
–Matthew 5:10

By God’s grace, ECCN has grown into a family of about 20 churches serving across Nepal. Church planting continues to be at the heart of our calling as we seek to reach unreached communities and strengthen local believers. Alongside evangelism, we are prayerfully committed to raising the next generation of Christ-centered leaders through the Evangelical Leadership Training Center (ELTC). Many pastors and church leaders serving in remote villages have been truly called by God but have never had the opportunity to receive formal theological education due to financial challenges, difficult terrain, and limited resources.Through ELTC, we provide practical and accessible biblical training that equips grassroots pastors and church leaders to faithfully shepherd their communities. We believe God does not call the qualified. He qualifies the called.

“But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.”
1 Corinthians 1:27

Beyond the church, we serve some of Nepal’s most vulnerable communities, where poverty, addiction, broken families, and limited opportunities often leave people without hope. Through Mother English Boarding School, we provide quality education that empowers children, strengthens families, and helps build healthier communities, reflecting the love of Christ in both word and action.ECCN is also actively involved in prayer, youth, children’s, women’s, and community ministries, each dedicated to nurturing faith and serving people with the love of Christ.

We invite you to learn more about our ministry, pray for the work God is doing across Nepal, and partner with us in reaching lives for His Kingdom. Your prayers, encouragement, and support make an eternal difference. Explore our website to discover more about our churches and ministries!

May our good and merciful Lord bless you all!
