About Grace Financial

Grace Financial was organized in 1955 as the Brethren Investment Foundation to serve as a source of mortgage financing for churches, schools and other organizations affiliated with the Charis Fellowship (formerly the Fellowship of Grace Brethren Churches).

Today, we remain passionately committed to God’s mission for the world and the Charis Fellowship. From our offices in Winona Lake, Indiana, our dedicated team serves our borrowers and investors with a unique blend of financial expertise and ministry knowledge in the following ways:

ACCELERATING MISSION

We make financing easy and accessible for churches and ministries. We provide competitive rates and terms on loans delivered through a highly relational and missional engagement process.

FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP

We are an expert resource for financial stewardship, helping people and organizations care for their money well while contributing to Kingdom growth.

COMMITTED TO CHARIS

We have a rich history in the Charis Fellowship, and we create opportunities to bring churches, ministries and members together to accomplish more than each can do on their own.
