The credit union is committed to supporting Christian ministry. One way we support these ministries is by providing exceptional deposit account options. It is our prayer each church or ministry will use the money they save on fees or the  money they earn from additional interest earnings the money they have on deposit with Christian Family Credit Union to fund existing or additional ministries.

Variable Share Account

The Variable Share Account is available only to local churches and affiliated organizations. It is designed to pay a higher dividend rate than our regular savings account without tying up funds for a specific length of time.

Certain Restrictions Apply: The Variable Share Account requires a minimum balance of $10,000 and allows for up to two withdrawals per month. 

 

Share Certificates

If you are looking for the safety of principal and higher earnings than what is traditionally paid on savings or Money Market Accounts, our Share Certificates may be the perfect place to deposit church funds. Share Certificates provide the highest dividend rates of all our deposit accounts. Rates are based on the beginning balance and length of your Share Certificate.

  • Terms available from 6 to 60 months

  • Share Certificates can be purchased for as little as $1,000

  • Jumbo Share Certificate rates available for deposits of $50,000 and above

We may impose a penalty if you withdraw from your account before the maturity date. The penalty amount for share certificate accounts may be up to 180 days of dividends. The penalty is calculated as a forfeiture of part of the dividends that have been or would be earned on the account. It applies whether or not the dividends have been earned. If the account has not yet earned enough dividends or if the dividend has already been paid, the penalty will be deducted from the principal.

 

Ministry Checking

Ministry Checking is designed to serve as the church's primary operational account. Each check that you write will proudly display the name of your church or ministry organization.
