The Church Finance Ministry is a department at the North American Mission Board, SBC who is tasked with the responsibility of strengthening affiliated Southern Baptist Churches as they deal with facility planning and financing issues. 

At no cost to our churches, we offer customized consultation based on their needs and ministry objectives. We count it a privilege to help churches no mater what phase of development they are in. Our consultation services appeal to the small and mega-churches alike. As funds are available new loan requests typically range from $10,000 to $6,000,000. 

We invite you to surf through the Frequently Asked Questions from Southern Baptist Churches and How Much Can Our Church Afford to Borrow? sections of this website. They will help you better understand the type of guidance we provide churches. 

Throughout the year members of our staff routinely speak at local and state convention meetings, as well as special-topic seminars related to our field of expertise. We would welcome the opportunity to speak at a seminar or luncheon that you may be conducting for your churches. Give us a call to discuss this possibility further. 

We would also invite you to sign-up to receive our free e-newsletter. This regular publication of CFM is designed to help you stay on the cutting edge of what is taking place in the world of church finance and stay current on our activities.
