Yokie Koh
Office Manager
Yokie joined New Life in 1998, and started to serve as our Office Manager in 2004. Much of her work is behind the scenes, but it allows us to have more time for our community.
She graduated from Iowa State University majoring in Computer Science.
Leadership Board
The facility, finances, ministry, and operations of New Life Church are all overseen by an annually elected church board made up of members from our church. The church board meets monthly, with occasional extra meetings as needed. Church board meetings are generally open to anyone, unless a closed session is necessary for dealing with personnel issues or other sensitive topics. The board is chaired by the Lead Pastor of the church.
District Network
New Life Church is part of the Northern California District, or network, of other Nazarene churches in our area. Each year we elect delegates to represent our church at the Northern California District Assembly. These meetings are held in May to coordinate and oversee the business of about 70 Nazarene churches in Northern California.
