We are the English-speaking ministry of New Song Evangelical Church in the city of La Crescenta. Our vision and desire is to be a multi-generational church founded upon the Lord Jesus Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit, being witnesses to Jesus in La Crescenta and to the end of the earth.
VISION
The vision and summary for the leadership and ministry structure of our church can be found in Ephesians 4:11-12 which succinctly defines high offices of leadership and ministry, which we refer to as the five-fold ministry, which are…
- Apostles
- Prophets
- Evangelists
- Pastors
- Teachers
We recognize these offices of ministry and hold them to be valid and still effective today.
GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT
Additionally we believe in the various gifts of the Spirit, which include healing, prophecy, tongues, and other supernatural gift’s. We believe each of these gifts operate today.
15And He (Jesus) said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16“He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. 17“These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; 18they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” Mark 16:15–18 (NASB95)
DISCIPLESHIP
Finding your place and purpose in the body of Christ is a journey you and every believer will take. It can be a difficult but exciting one. It’s a journey of trial and struggle but also of growth, maturity, and ultimately faith and wisdom.
It’s our desire to help guide believers in their journey, with spiritual edification, education, accountability, and fellowship. We sincerely believe these are necessary parts of a believers walk. It brings us no greater joy than to see believer’s mature in Christ. The ministries we’ve established here are intentionally centered around providing spiritual nourishment to disciples in our congregation.
We invite you to get connected and let us partner with you on your spiritual journey.

DO YOU BELIEVE ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED?
We believe that we have a free will to choose, and that a person can choose to receive Jesus Christ as Savior or choose to reject Him. This holds true for anyone who received Christ once before. They can willfully reject Him again and subsequently lose their salvation.
DO YOU REQUIRE MEMBERS TO GIVE FINANCIALLY?
We do not require financial donations as a condition of being a member of our congregation. However, we do strongly encourage members to support the ministry in accordance with biblical doctrine faithfully. Additionally, we believe financial generosity releases spiritual financial blessings on the giver. However, we do not restrict attendance to our services if a congregant does not give financially.
DO YOU HAVE NURSERY AND CHILDCARE?
We have children’s ministry for ages 4-10. Although nursery care is provided, infants and younger children are encouraged to attend service with parents in the main sanctuary. Children’s ministry is available for every regular service.
