MILWAUKIE, Ore., April 12, 2016 /Christian Newswire/ -- The ECFA (Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability) announced today the accreditation of Restored Hope Network of Milwaukie, OR.

ECFA accreditation is based on the ECFA Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship™, including financial accountability, transparency, sound board governance and ethical fundraising.
 
Restored Hope Network joins a growing number of Christ-centered churches and ministries across America, supported by over 27 million donors that have earned the right to display the ECFA seal.  When an organization is accredited by ECFA, it demonstrates its willingness to follow the model of biblical accountability.

"We are pleased to accredit a ministry committed to restoring hope to those broken by sexual and relational sin, especially those impacted by homosexuality," said Dan Busby, president of ECFA.

Founded in 2012, Restored Hope Network (www.restoredhopenetwork.org) proclaims that Jesus Christ has life-changing power for all who submit to Christ as Lord; they also seek to equip his church to impart that transformation.
