Baptist Church Loan Corporation
About Baptist Church Loan Corporation
The purpose for which the Baptist Church Loan Corporation (BCLC) is organized is to assist Baptist churches, and BCLC supported churches as defined in the corporation's bylaws, in their efforts to spread the gospel, by providing affordable church real estate related loans. The mission priorities of the corporation are to focus on the long term spiritual and financial health of each church; to provide them with straightforward terms, rate options, and underwriting guidelines; and to serve as many churches as possible, regardless of their longevity or size.
