The financial resources invested in the Fund are:
- Pooled to underwrite first and second mortgage loans to churches, missions and agencies affiliated with the Florida Baptist Convention.
- These loans help these ministries to purchase, build, renovate or refinance their facilities.
- The loan interest paid back is used to pay interest earned to investors and is also reinvested in Kingdom causes.
We help Florida Baptist Convention churches turn cash into an investment that does just this while providing a competitive return to further your unique Kingdom impact. CGIF is the best cash management solution to maximize the resources in your reserve or savings account while moving the Gospel Mission forward in the state of Florida. Whether you need liquidity or income we have solutions to meet your goals while impacting His Kingdom.
