With the support of the Lilly Endowment, Indiana Ministries has assembled a group of Christian professionals and the financial support to help both pastors and their congregations discover financial freedom in these difficult times.
Now there is help for both pastors and congregations as they strive to find financial freedom. There are some clear "Best Practices" that can help pastors and congregations to live out God's plans for their financial health.
The Financial Freedom Fund has been made possible by a generous grant from the Lilly Religious Endowment. It provides financial assistance and professional consultants to pastors and congregations in three areas:
- Pensions
- Educational Debt
- Health care reimbursement arrangements
Guidelines for participation in one or all of these programs will be shared at the Best Practices for Pastor and Congregational Financial Health Conference on March 24, 2012. Thus far, the FFF has awarded 39 grants totaling almost $87,000 in assistance!
For More Information on the Best Practices Conference on March 24th, please download the below letter and registration form.
Pre-register BEFORE March 9th in order to take advantage of FREE registration.
Online Registration is available. Please visit our events page on our website.
