About ECC

Raising Generations.
Transforming Communities.

A multicultural, contemporary, Spirit-led church in Kazhakootam, Trivandrum, since 2022.

Evergreen

Who we are

Three phrases explain us

  1. 01

    The name

    Evergreen

    “Evergreens will grow in place of thorn bushes; they will be a monument to the Lord.” Isaiah 55:13 is where our name comes from: life that stays green, growing where there were thorns.

  2. 02

    The prayer

    In Keralam as it is in Heaven

    Jesus taught us to pray “your kingdom come, on earth as it is in heaven.” We pray it for our own state, and we mean it for the streets we live on.

  3. 03

    The work

    Here, now, in this city

    God’s Kingdom isn’t just a future promise. It’s being built in homes, workplaces and neighbourhoods across Trivandrum, and ECC is where that work starts.

Our story · Since 2022

A church that feels like home first

Evergreen City Community was founded in 2022 by Presty Varghese and Sheba Mathew with a simple conviction: the church should feel like home before it feels like church.

Since then, ECC has grown into a multicultural, contemporary faith community in Trivandrum committed to raising generations and transforming communities.

What we believe

Seven things we hold to

The foundations under everything we do on a Sunday and through the week.

  1. 01

    God’s Living Word

    The Bible is God’s inspired Word true, authoritative, and relevant, guiding our everyday lives with clarity, wisdom, and purpose.

  2. 02

    One God, Three Persons

    God is one Father, Son, and Holy Spirit perfectly loving, completely holy, and Creator of all things.

  3. 03

    Sin Separates Us

    Sin distances us from God and His purpose, breaking the relationship we were created to live in.

  4. 04

    Christ Restores Us

    Jesus, fully God and man, lived sinlessly, died for us, and rose again restoring our relationship with God and giving us new life.

  5. 05

    Called with Purpose

    God equips each of us uniquely to worship Him, serve the Church, and impact the world around us.

  6. 06

    Healing & Transformation

    God heals, restores, and transforms us—so we can live whole, abundant lives and reflect His love to others.

  7. 07

    Christ Will Return

    Jesus will return as promised bringing fulfillment, hope, and the completion of all things.
