Helping Churches Expand Ministry

Since the early 1960s, Texas Methodist Foundation has offered loans to empower churches and nonprofits to achieve their God-inspired dreams. Our rates and expert counsel help churches sustainably grow while expanding their ministries for the long term. With over sixty years and thousands of church loans, we are one of the largest church extension funds in the country.

TMF impact investors fund loans for church construction projects and their capital needs. Unlike commercial financial institutions, loan interest earned by TMF is reinvested back into churches and nonprofit ministries through grants and leadership and congregational engagement ministries.

Impact Story

Creating Space for God in a Generational Church

A&M United Methodist Church has built a thriving generational congregation in College Station, Texas. Their creative use of space allows members to experience God in more spaces, not just in the main sanctuary for an hour a week on Sunday. Converting an adjacent building's old sanctuary into a coffee shop created a unique new intimate space where students now come throughout the week to study and connect with friends. 

Reimaging a simple stained-glass window into a rich tapestry of the life of Jesus is now a new space for worship and a gathering place that has become a source of pride for the entire congregation. New spaces have also been created for the arts to host shows and live performances by artists across the community. 

Rethinking spaces where members meet and connect with God and with each other extend worship and formation across the campus and where connection can be found and experienced.
