Who is this for?
Heritage Covenant Church is for individuals and families in North Spokane and nearby communities who are seeking a biblically grounded church rooted in the historic Protestant faith and committed to discipleship, hospitality, and shared life.
How we'll start
We’re starting by gathering people and forming a core community through discipleship before launching a full Sunday service.
Our primary rhythm in this season is Covenant Family Night—a weekly gathering centered on shared meals, prayer, and intentional discipleship through the Heritage Way.
As we grow in unity, maturity, and readiness, we will move toward establishing regular Lord’s Day worship.
We are building slowly and intentionally—forming people first, trusting that the church will grow from there.
Family Night
Covenant Family Night is the primary way we gather as we begin forming Heritage Covenant Church.
Each week, we share a meal, sing together, and grow through intentional discipleship.
Children and youth receive age-appropriate teaching, while adults walk through the Heritage Way discipleship pathway—learning, discussing, and applying God’s Word together.
This is not an added program, but a core rhythm of our life together. Through hospitality, Scripture, and intentional relationships, we are being formed into a faithful covenant community.
If you’re interested in being part of the church plant, this is the best place to start.
Phase 1
VISION CASTING
In this phase, we begin by sharing the vision of Heritage Covenant Church through personal conversations and informal gatherings across the Spokane region. Through hospitality, relationship-building, and open dialogue, we invite individuals and families to explore the formation of a gospel-centered, covenant community together.
Goal: Build strong relational connections and gather a group aligned with the mission, doctrine, and vision of the church.
(Fall 2025 – Spring 2026)
Phase 2
ROOTING
In this phase, we begin forming the core team and start the Heritage Way discipleship pathway with committed individuals and families. Through weekly Covenant Family Night gatherings—sharing meals, Scripture reflection, prayer, and guided conversation—we establish a shared foundation in doctrine, life, and community.
Goal: Establish a spiritually mature, unified core grounded in Word, prayer, and covenant life.
(Summer 2026)
Phase 3
FORMING
In this phase, as the community grows in unity and maturity through shared discipleship, leadership begins to emerge naturally from within the body. Individuals are equipped to serve in areas such as worship, hospitality, children’s discipleship, administration, and outreach through demonstrated faithfulness and growing responsibility.
Goal: Establish a unified, spiritually prepared leadership team with clear roles shaped by character, conviction, and shared life.
(Fall 2026 – Spring 2027)
Phase 4
ESTABLISH WORSHIP
In this phase, as the church matures in doctrine, unity, and leadership, we begin establishing regular Lord’s Day worship as the central gathering of the church.
Through continued discipleship, shared life, and developing ministry rhythms, we prepare for public worship rooted in the Word, the sacraments, and prayer.
Over time, those formed through this pathway are equipped to disciple others and, as the Lord provides, help establish new gospel communities in surrounding areas.
Goal: Establish Lord’s Day worship with a strong foundation for long-term faithfulness, stability, and growth.
(Spring 2027 – Fall 2027)
