Södra Vätterbygdens Folkhögskola (SVF) The international college program at Södra Vätter- bygdens Folhögskola (SVF), includes a student exchange with North Park University, started in 1976. Now cele- brating more than three decades of continuous exchange, SVF College Line is one of the oldest programs of its kind between Sweden and the United States. College Line is a one-year program in which your fall semester takes place at SVF in Jönköping, Sweden, and your spring semester at North Park University in Chicago. Dur- ing the fall semester, a group of approximately 15 North Park students study at SVF together with a cohort of about 15 SVF students. For the spring semester, everyone moves to Chicago to continue with the second se- mester of the program. This fall, the Wes & Deb Lindahl have been the chaperones with the NPU students. You may want to check out their blog to see what they have been up to.

The Evangelical Covenant Church affirms the centrality of the scriptures, with emphasis upon the grace of God. Covenanters also have a tradition of freedom that accepts a diversity of backgrounds and doctrinal positions, while maintaining a common unity in Christ. The Covenant has often been called a Family of Faith. Our congregational life indicates that this is an apt description.
