New Life Christian Fellowship (NLCF) is an evangelical Christian church in Blacksburg, Virginia that ministers to the Virginia Tech and New River Valley communities. An estimated 800 worshipers attend one of the church's three weekly gatherings, most of whom are college students attending services on the Virginia Tech campus. ==Beliefs and practices== Regarding the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed, members of NLCF "stand together with Christians everywhere across the centuries that have embraced these basic statements of faith. These creeds form the core expression of our faith."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What We Believe )〕 The tripartite mission of NLCF is to #invest in spiritual growth, #invite others to follow Jesus, and #inspire each other to change the world. Although NLCF's weekly services draw large crowds, much of the church life takes place in small groups. Members meet on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays in "homegroups" that attract between 20 to 40 in the same age bracket.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What is a Homegroup )〕 Smaller "lifegroups" with 5 to 10 members, typically all male or all female, also meet for more weighty spiritual discussions, Bible study, and prayer. Because the majority of NLCF's members are college students, the church's staff members must raise support for their own salary. This process typically lasts at least nine months after training. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Life Christian Fellowship」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
