For over 60 years, both Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) and AdelFi have been providing faith-aligned banking to Christian individuals, families, ministries, and Christian-owned businesses. United by our shared values and mission, this merger is a natural fit.
By joining forces, we’ll be better equipped to offer a broader range of products, deliver exceptional service, and invest in innovative technologies that enhance the member experience and drive efficiency.
As America’s largest Christian banking institution, together, we will become an even stronger financial institution, better positioned to serve you, expand our reach, and increase Kingdom impact substantially.
This is a Merger of Equals (MOE). As such, this means that two independent credit unions of similar size are coming together to form one stronger, combined credit union. This merger allows us to provide even more value to our members—offering better rates, fewer fees, and improved service options—while staying competitive in the market. AdelFi members overwhelmingly voted in favor of the merger with AdelFi because they will be moving to American Share Insurance (ASI). Moving to ASI insurance means AdelFi will operate under AdelFi’s charter with Blair Korschun (current AdelFi CEO) as CEO. This merger of equals is about uniting strengths to better serve you and the Christian community for years to come.
AdelFi members voted to join Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) because they will convert to private insurance—(American Share Insurance) and will operate under CCCU’s charter.
