Christian Faith Center Today
Christian Faith Center, pastored by Pastors Casey & Wendy Treat, consists of two major church campuses in Federal Way and Mill Creek, WA, a network of Connect Groups , Seattle Bible College , Christian Faith School. . At Christian Faith Center, our ongoing vision is to Pastor the Northwest, Teach the Nation, and Inspire the World, and part of our vision for growth is reflected in the continued expansion of our facilities. The rapid growth of our church over the last 31 years has given us the enviable problem of having to accommodate the number of people attending our church and schools.
History of Christian Faith Center
In their last two years of Bible College, Casey and Wendy Treat began to sense the call of God on their lives to plant a church. On January 6, 1980, Casey and Wendy founded Christian Faith Center and began pastoring a group of 30. They were ordained in July 1980 by Dr. Fred Price at Crenshaw Christian Center in Los Angeles, California.
In 1984, Casey and Wendy founded Christian Faith School (for pre-school through 12th grade), and later Vision College .
With the first annual Vision Spiritual Life Conference in 1985, Casey and Wendy launched Vision Ministry Fellowship . This organization provides support for men and women in leadership who want to grow and more fully develop themselves and their ministries through teaching, mentoring, and relationship building. Casey and Wendy Treat have been instrumental in helping to plant and support numerous churches through this ministry. CFC Mill Creek was launched in July 2003.
