Building Up Congregations.
Financing an expansion or remodeling project is one of the greatest challenges a congregation or church organization faces.Church Extension is able to help meet the challenge by offering loans to qualified Disciples congregations.
Loan Services
Church Extension loans are made to congregations and organizations of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) for the purchase of sites, equipment, construction and remodeling of church buildings, construction of facilities for regional and general ministries of the Church, campus facilities and student centers for church-related colleges and seminaries, development of camp and conference centers and other church-related capital projects.
A General Consultation with a Church Extension Consultant is required prior to submitting a loan 
application except when loan amounts are modest. During a General Consultation, borrowing capacities, interest rates, availability of funds, maturities, payment schedules and other loan terms are determined. General Consultations are made without charge to the congregation or organization visited.
We offer a variety of loan programs to help meet your specific needs:
Interest Free Loans
Limited financing is available only to qualifying congregations and regions that are listed in the Year Book and Directory of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Interest free loans are available for new church sites, first units, certain minority situations, natural disaster emergencies, certain off-continent situations and intentionally integrated congregations.
Accessibility Loans
Accessibility Loans are low-interest loans made to congregations renovating facilities to remove barriers for people with disabilities. Accessibility Loans are funded through gifts made to the various Accessibility Funds. Limited low-interest financing is available only to qualifying congregations and regions that are listed in the Year Book and Directory of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
