FAQs
You’ll need at least the last three years of financial statements. This includes Income statements and balance sheets. You’ll also need to include current year-to-date financials. These documents help us to prequalify a church for a loan.
It’s also a good idea to include the articles of incorporation and/or bylaws. These documents can help your ministry qualify for membership. If these documents look good, then we’ll need a complete application package from you. Here are some tips to help you get started.
