Message from the
Dept. of Finance & Investments

Through our concerted application of trust, integrity, and innovation we pledge to energize the latent energy of God’s people to both implement best financial practices – while leading new developments.

The message of these pages is the build of scalable & repeatable models of best practices that ultimately supplement the ministries of churches in their local communities.

To that end, these pages commit to faith, family, and friends as we pray your indulgence and embrace.

There is a great story to be told of the blessings of the Lord as our Zion envisions its sesquicentennial anniversary and we are committed to spreading the joy of the Lord.

May God bless the CME Church
