About Us

A passion to see people fulfil their God-given calling in every area of their lives
Senior Pastors Calvin & Cyan Patterson

10+ Years of Serving God and Loving His People

Covenant CFC (Christian Family Church), led by Ps Calvin and Cyan Patterson, is focused on implementing God’s plan in the greater Durban area, based in Umhlanga. We aim to use the ministry’s four main values as tools to impact the community around us, and encourage people to develop a real relationship with God. 

Covenant CFC is family focused (it’s in our name!) and we believe in building lasting relationships as a church community. We have a steadfast love for the community around us and unwavering dedication to the teaching and preaching of God’s perfect Word. Our vision is to branch out and plant two more churches within the next 5 years, in the Ballito and Hillcrest areas.

Let's Connect!

Come Join Us!

Covenant Christian Family Church is the home to many different people, races, and genders. We love on any one who is willing to receive it. As a church we believe in sharing the truth with our members and are not here to please people, nor are we here to water down our faith. We hope to build people up and drive them to new levels of Faith and works within their community. Life groups will be run from leaders homes midweek to enable fellowship in smaller environments and growth between members. Our four main values will be focused on in these groups being Word, Worship, Works, and  Accountability. 

Word is the infallible truth that comes from the Bible. Worship conducted through service and deeds to glorify the Lord as well as through Dance and Music. Works, serving the community and the body Christ – the church. Accountability – supporting one another and keeping each-other on the straight and narrow.

Ps Calvin and Cyan were planted out of CFC Empangeni and Richards Bay (under the leadership of their parents, Ps Graham and Mary Patterson) where they still serve as pastors, and thus Covenant Christian Family Church Umhlanga was born.
