God has called each of us to be good stewards with the resources He has entrusted to us. Not only do we believe that individually but also as an organization. Watch this video to hear more about financial stewardship at New Life.

ECFA Member

 
 

In December 2011, the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) announced our accreditation. This national organization with over 1,600 members provides an independent seal of approval in the area of financial accountability, governance and stewardship. New Life became the 85th church in the nation and second in Washington State to receive this accreditation. We are committed to keeping our financial house in order and being excellent stewards of the resources God has entrusted to us. For more information about the ECFA, click HERE
