We are:

  • A Church that welcomes all denominations and all people.

  • A church that believes that people can have a relationship with God through the Lord Jesus Christ. As you live in the newness of life the Spirit of the Lord will empower you to live a surrendered life that is pleasing to God.

  • A church that the love of God is building as we reach out to the poor, the destitute, the abandoned, the displaced, the lonely, and the addicted.

  • A church that is hungry and thirsty for the truth of the Word of God to know Him and to hear Him.

  • A church who's heart is set upon true worship and dedicated to the power of prayer.

We believe the Bible is the inspired and only infallible Word of God, and in the power of Jesus to forgive, save, heal and restore.

Emmanuel Christian Church (ECC) has been focused on the poor, the hungry and the abandoned in one of the most affluent counties in the United States. 

Many of the people who have found their hope and provision in the Lord Jesus are now ministering to the people in the city of Hackensack, New Jersey.

God is raising up people in the city that have long been forgotten, but not forgotten by their Father God, and restoring them to be His church.

It is our hope that as you go through the pages of this website, listen to the message from the pulpit and rejoice in the music you hear, you will draw closer to the God that loves you.

All are invited to attend this multicultural church.
