We offer Loans at a low net cost to you because we don’t charge any fees to process your loan.
We will lend and grant money for almost any purpose that expands the outreach of your fellowship community or church. We know that a church is more than the just the building where you meet.
All of the Methodist Churches in Minnesota are automatically members of our group and we look to all of the churches for support through donations and participation in our mission. We have grown with the churches we’ve helped and are reaching out to all of the Methodist churches in the state.
Why Are People Choosing Us?
Grow
Apply
Your church is eligible to receive low interest rates without any additional costs for building and program finance loans on your church project. Request assistance for crises grant funding or apply for our annual appeal grant.
Whether it’s a new roof, a sidewalk repair, a parking lot resurfacing or lighting that will save energy, please consider us as your “ace in the hole” that will be there for you.
We know that a loan for a project to save energy, to expand an audio visual program to reach a larger audience, that extra helper for youth or elderly programs might need a little incentive money to make it get off the ground. We will listen to any proposal you have for a grant or a loan if you have a solid plan that makes sense to you, the congregation, the board of trustees or the Administrative Council.

Our board members are all experienced businessmen and women and have a wealth of experience that we are eager to share with your church or faith community. We have been in churches that have struggled, grown, lost members, changed pastors, have had building problems, experienced personnel problems and have had lots of money problems.
The need for money often is a sign that there are other things wrong and often it is necessary to understand that money alone will not cure the underlying problems. We are willing to lend money where the money funds the solution to the problem. Often we can help solve a problem by understanding what is going on and suggesting a solution. We are willing to get involved and help you by defining and understanding what needs to be done to accomplish the task.
Remember, we are already your partner. You are our customer even if you have never contributed or borrowed from us. Just by being you are part of our call.
