ELCA Mission
Investment Fund
Through the Mission
Investment Fund (MIF), ELCA congregations and their members, and
ELCA-related ministries may invest their funds in the growth of the
Lutheran church and earn interest on their investments. Funds invested
in MIF are used to make loans to ELCA mission congregations for purchases
of land and construction of initial church buildings, and to established
ELCA congregations for expansions, renovations, relocations and land
purchases. Contact Shelly Petersen at shelly.petersen@elca.org
for more information.
