SAN DIMAS, Calif., Oct. 27, 2020 /Christian Newswire/ -- After a competitive process and rigorous evaluation, Christian Community Credit Union has chosen 49 Financial to offer investment and financial planning services to its members. 49 Financial is a firm founded on Biblical values and takes its name from Ecclesiastes 4:9, which says, "Two are better than one, for they receive a greater return for their labor."
